2024 Spring Team Preview: Eaton Eagles

Team Name: Eaton Eagles
Head Coach: Robert Ebright
Division: II
2023 Record: 11-12
2023 Tourney Finish: Sectionals loss to Ben Logan

Coach Outlook: "We lost the majority of our production at the plate and on the mound to graduation, with that being said our young guys are working hard and competing for their roles on the team. We have some guys, who can compete at the varsity level, but just have not had the experience yet. Our season will depend on how quickly our younger players can mature into their roles."
