TOP RETURNERS (Commit)

Shawn Courtney, CF/RHP, 2015
Colin Corey, SS/RHP, 2016
Jacob Roop, RHP/RF, 2016

Other Players of Interest for the Atoms: Hector Lopez (INF, 2015), Kyle Goettlicher (C/INF, 2015), Jared Lefbom (P/INF), Richie Niner, (INF, 2015), Tim Johnson, (OF/P, 2016), Grant Thompson (INF, 2016), Aaron Boyd (OF, 2016), Mason Farman (C, 2016), Nathan Corcoran (OF, 2016), and Tucker Mack (OF/P, 2016)

OUTLOOK:
Annandale will return some very talented players for the 2015 season, including 2014 All-Conference (Patriot) performers, Colin Corey, Shawn Courtney, and Jacob Roop.  They will be looking to fill the void left with the departure of Patriot Conference “Pitcher of the Year” and 1st team All-Region player Steven Schwartz, who also led the team in hitting.  The Atoms looks to be strong on the mound, going five (5) deep, and in the field, returning a majority of their roster from a year ago.  They should be able to take this young talent and make a run in the postseason if they can battle through at-bats, manufacture runs, and get some power production at times.
