Final Comments:
Nine seniors return from last season's 5-17 team that lost many close, low-scoring games down the stretch. Seven of those returning seniors started at least 15 games for the Silver Knights in 2024, including two of the top three pitchers from that club. Sophomore transfer Deagan Fought will pack a punch at the plate and contribute on the mound, mostly in relief.
