2021 Spring Team Preview: Field Falcons

Team Name: Field Falcons
Head Coach: Joe Peterson
Division: II
2019 Record: 17-10
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 6/5

2021 Team Strengths:

  • This senior class has several guys that have seen a lot of varsity time in their careers. We are hoping that will pay off especially without having a season last year. Another team strength will be our pitching staff. We have a lot of depth there and some real nice talent.

Coach Outlook: "We will be returning everyone from last years team (2020). We have a mostly veteran team with some quality young guys vying for some time. With losing the 2020 season we have a couple question marks to figure out but are extremely excited about our potential answers."
