2022 OUTLOOK:
The Clippers return an experienced team of position players. The strength of the team remains the Inf trio of Swails, Young and Smith, when they are together on the infield. Swails and Young will be called on to pitch, with question to those who replace them defensively. Josh Loren and Sam Young return with the most innings pitched. The overall success of this years team will be determined by the overall development of the pitching staff and the development of the infielders that will replace Swails and Young when they are called on to pitch.” Head Coach Nick Zumsande
