Coach Outlook: "Entire pitching staff is returning from our 21-10 (2023) season that ended in the Div.4 Regional Finals. Defensively we need to replace 2B & RF and we feel we have a nucleus of options with good talented players. With the formula of Solid pitching and defense we feel we can compete every time we step on a diamond. Hitting obviously improved as our season progressed last year and I feel our team has improved tremendously in the offseason. Team speed will help us in all phases of the game which includes, defensively and offensively, especially on the bases."
