2018 OUTLOOK
"We are a young team, although not completely inexperienced. We have to replace a ton of innings on the mound, and to do that we must throw strikes and play great defense. Our offense has the potential to create runs. We have good depth, and will play hard-nosed baseball to grind out wins." Head Coach Nick Klein
