Final Comments:
Strengths - We have a lot of team speed, both on the bases and in the outfield. We look to be very aggressive once we get on base.

Weaknesses - We are young and a bit inexperienced. We will need to rely heavily on a few girls for leadership that have previous game time experience.

Outlook - we are looking to compete, and gain the necessary experience and confidence for our first-time starters as the season progresses. We expect to look more poised and perform at a higher level toward the second half of the season.
