2024 OUTLOOK

”Losing Conference MVP Ethan Arntson, along with 2 other starters, to graduation leaves some definite holes to fill, especially offensively. But we do have over 60% of our IP last year returning including Conference Pitcher of the Year Parker Erickson (JR), so we may need to rely on them to keep us in games while we find our way offensively. Parker Erickson, Jake Satterlund, JR P/IF, and David Larson JR C, return and all at times hit with some power, but that leaves room for some players to step up. Senior OF/P Josiah Sundby, Soph Middle Infielder Isaac Sundby and Jr 1B/P Elliot Arntson are returning players that will be looking to contribute to that.”- Paul Bethke, Head Coach
