2017 TEAM PREVIEW: Lafayette harrison Raiders

Head Coach: Pat Lowrey
Class: 4A
2016 Record: 20-10
Conference (2016 Record):  NCC 
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 5/3

2017 Team Strengths:

• Offense
• Team Chemistry
• Pitching Depth 

Top Returning Players:

• Max Hanas, OF, 2017: .338BA (right)
• Bobby Dearing, 1B/LHP, 2018
• Dylan Levesque, LHP, 2018: 28IP 27K
• Jonathon Laguire, OF/RHP, 2018: 24IP 38K 
• Alex Bauer, SS, 2018: .319BA 

Outlook:  Coach Lowrey takes the Raiders into 2017 following two consecutive 20-win seasons.  Harrison will rely on 3-year starter Max Hanas and LHH Bobby Dearing to replace Carter Bridge (Western Michigan) in the lineup.  Dylan Levesque and Jonathon Laguire expect to lead the Raiders on the mound.  Harrison should be very competitive in the NCC and in a loaded sectional featuring three top 25 teams.
