2024 Spring Team Preview: Indian Creek Redskins

Team Name: Indian Creek Redskins
Head Coach: Mike Cottis
Division: II
2023 Record: 9-17
2023 Tourney Finish: Sectional Finals loss to John Glenn
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 5/4

Coach Outlook: "We lost a lot of offensive firepower with the graduation of Aidan Orr (Oakland U.), Jack Amis (Bryant and Stratton) and Sy Howell (Bethany), but we return a good corps of experience. Our returning starters are Landon Pownall (1B), Nick Maurer (2B), Ty Householder (CF), Gavin Pownall (SS) and Sal Barcalow (LF). We are very excited about the leadership these guys provide and we have high expectations of our other returning lettermen that will be taking over new starting roles."
