OUTLOOK:
Tri-Valley is coming off a very successful 2013 campaign. They had over 20 wins and had a perfect 16-0 league record. Six starters in the field are set to return along with three pitchers from last year’s squad. At the Plate, Tri-Valley will be led by senior catcher Drew Ritchey who hit .383 last year and also added 21 RBI. Others to watch out for from an offensive standpoint include junior third baseman Nick Slaboden, who hit .370 last year with 19 RBI, and sophomore shortstop Tyler McGee, who hit .300 and added 13 RBI. On the hill, Tri-Valley will be led by senior Kyle Sensabaugh who posted a 6-1 record last year and had an ERA of 1.49. Tri-Valley looks to be a very competitive team once again this year within the Muskingum Valley League and has a great chance to repeat as league champion.
