OUTLOOK:  

Carlisle makes the jump to Division II play, but the team is equipped with a roster to handle the challenge. Coach Hawkins returns seven players from last year's lineup. Levi Boyer will return behind the plate while Skyler Kelly will help anchor the middle of the infield. Alec Turner will provide offense in the middle of the order while Josh Tarter, Andrew Goodpaster, and Hunter Back create a formidable pitching staff.
