2016 OUTLOOK
"We lost 1 senior from last season and return everyone from our pitching staff. Our defense, pitching and team speed should carry us pretty far in the 2016 season. The time put in by this team and their determination has been outstanding. Not the most talent I’ve had on a team in9 years; but it’s the best overall team I've had." Head Coach Colin Meyer
