2018 OUTLOOK
"We return a core of players that have been playing at the varsity level together for a few years.  We are looking to build on one of the better years our program has had in recent times and are looking to take the next step as a program.  We will be a much deeper team than we have been in the past.  We have experience on the mound and look to be deep on our staff.  We will be looking for a lot of guys to push for playing time as we replace two starters from last year." Head Coach Bo Darrow
