OUTLOOK:  

With six returning starters, Canfield figures to be in the mix for an All American Conference title and run at a district championship. Senior RHP Jimmy Leone, a 6-foot-3, 205-pound prospect, is one of the areas top uncommitted players. Meanwhile, Edmond Pilolli returns up the middle and figures to play an important role in the lineup while senior RHP Colton Crissman adds another solid arm to the rotation. But, it won't be easy as Cardinals do battle with Austintown Fitch, Howland, and Warren Harding.
