Final Comments:
The Braves return a solid nucleus. This year's team has put in a lot of time during the summer, fall, and winter. Four players will play college baseball next year, which gives the team some great leadership. The non-conference schedule is challenging and that includes a spring break trip to Tennessee to the Donny Everett Classic.

The Braves return 11 lettermen and 5 starters.
