Trey Johnson, OF, 2015
Josh Riggs, RHP/3B, 2015
Ethan Powell, RHP/SS/OF, 2016
Seth Burnell, RHP/1B, 2015


OUTLOOK:

Coming off a 13-19 season that saw the Raiders suffer a first round loss in the 18th District tournament, Coach Taylor's squad returns 6 starters and 8 pitchers and looks to compete for a District Championship.  Junior RHP/1B Ross Thompson will lead a young but experienced team, and a pair of junior outfielders in Luke Sims and Trey Johnson, along with Thompson, will provide some offensive firepower.
