Division: IV
2017 Record: 9-15
Conference Record: Northwest Conference, 2-6 - Tied 7th

2018 Team Strengths:

  • Team Speed
  • Top of line-up

Coach Outlook: Believe we can be very competitive, just need to play fundamentally sound baseball. Hitting will need to improve, as that was our achilles heel last season. Overall, we have a very versatile team with a bunch of young faces to add to the mix.

PBR Outlook: Coach Escamilla and the Mustangs feel they can be a competitive team in 2018 after a 9 win campaign in 2017.
