Team: Arkansas City
Nickname: Bulldogs
Class: 5A
League: AVCTL, Division 2
Head Coach: Aaron Bucher
Years as Head Coach at School: 15
2013 Overall Record: 10-9
2013 League Record: 6-6
2013 League Finish: 4th
2013 Post-Season Finish: First round of regionals

TOP PLAYERS
Cam Estrada, 3B, Class of 2014 – AVCTL All-League 1st Team
Josh Gurnee, C, Class of 2014 – AVCTL All-League 2nd Team
Bret Grose, 2B, Class of 2015 – AVCTL All-League Honorable Mention
OUTLOOK:
With only 4 returning starters in their line-up and the loss of several key pitchers, including 1st Team AVCTL All-League pitcher AC Navarette, the Bulldogs need several things to fall into place to make a run in 2014. Returning All-League performers Cam Estrada, Josh Gurnee and Bret Grose will be looked to for both leadership and production.
