2017 OUTLOOK
"We are very excited for the potential of this season. We will look to continue our success through pitching and strong defense. We return 7 starters from last season's State Championship team. Alex Evenson will lead the way on the mound and at the plate. He is coming off an excellent season in which he was 8-1 as a pitcher and hit .495. Kenny Kiratli and Noah Dehne should be exciting to watch as they lead our defense from the middle of our infield. Simon Huyck will move to center and is poised to have a strong season. Justin Evenson does an outstanding job working with our pitchers, throwing the ball, and blocking pitches. Through our senior leadership and depth, we hope to continue our success on the field." Head Coach Scott Glenn
