Final Comments:
This year we bring back a lot of players with varsity experience including our top 3 pitchers from 2023. Our pitching staff should be as deep as anyone in the league and we bring back a lot of offensive production. We lost 4 talented seniors who had anchored the middle of our defense for 3 years. In order for us to reach our goals we will need our juniors with experience to step up from role players and fill those key spots in the defense.
