Coach Outlook: "We have a strong senior group that have become great leaders. They have been a big part in changing the culture around our program and our offseason has been great. We return a lot of players with varsity experience and five 3 year starters who have had a lot of success. We will need to find more depth especially in the pitching staff as we have innings to fill. Our expectation is to compete for a league championship this season and make some noise come postseason."
