2018 Spring Team Preview: Cardington-Lincoln Pirates

Team Name: Cardington-Lincoln Pirates
Head Coach: Jack Bault
Division: IV
2017 Record: 11-11
Conference Record: Knox-Morrow Athletic Conference
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 3/2

2018 Team Strengths:

  • Depth
  • Versatility

Coach Outlook: We lost a big senior class last season. We do not have a lot of players with consistent varsity experience, but these guys hungry and want to compete for spots! One of our team goals is to win 50% of our games and compete for a D4 Central District Title.

PBR Outlook: Coach Bault and the Pirates look to be competitive in D-IV in 2018.
