Final Comments:
Very excited for this season after a historic season a year ago making it to the district finals for only the 2nd time in school history. We return a lot of talent from a year ago but need to replace 2 very valuable seniors. Our ability to throw strikes as a pitching staff and score those 2 out runs will be the determining factor as to just how much success we have this year. We have a good mix of young and older talent with a deep lineup that should produce from top to bottom. Finding a true number 1 arm will be our challenge.
