Final Comments:
Strengths will be senior leadership (5 seniors) and pitching depth; weakness will be need to have players step up early in the season to critical positions on the field (SS & CF); outlook is promising - bring in some young players who are ready to contribute now and hope to surprise some teams as we go through the very tough MSL Buckeye division.
