OUTLOOK:

Over the past three years, Centerville has posted an astonishing 71-7 record. The trend of dominance continued last season as they posted a 24-2 record including a perfect 10-0 league record. This year Centerville will be led by senior pitcher Ryan Fox. Fox was 5-0 last season, and is undefeated as a varsity starter for his career. At the plate, Centerville will be led by senior 2B Tyler Klepach and junior C/OF Blake Zeller. Klepach is coming of a year in which he hit .309 and drove in 15 runs and Zeller is coming off a year in which he hit .299 and scored 19 runs. Centerville doesn’t return a whole lot from last year’s team. However, they have been great at reloading from year to year. Centerville is a preseason favorite to contend for the league championship. Look for them continue the great play we have seen from them over the past few years.
