2023 Spring Team Preview: Olentangy Orange Pioneers

Team Name: Olentangy Orange Pioneers
Head Coach: Tom Marker
Division: I
2022 Record: 17-10
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 7/6

Coach Outlook: "We return 91% of our innings from 2022, and you couple that with the return of three year starters in Charlie Scholvin and Cole Cahill, this year could be a lot of fun. We have 18 seniors looking to be rostered in the spring and some underclassmen that are uber talented and will contribute immediately. A very diverse skill-set that could be very good if roles are understood and the team connects as a unit."
