OUTLOOK:

After going 8-6 in conference a season ago a fairly young team in Mechanicsburg returns starters from 2013. Though this team might not be the favorite to win their conference they should still compete in conference play. Mechanicsburg has pretty good hitters returning for the 2014 season and could have a good year offensively. Mechanicsburg should be a decent team in 2014.
