OUTLOOK
The Campbell Camels will be young in 2015, returning no starting pitchers with 15-plus innings from a year ago. Although young, mostly sophomores, the Camels will have a lot of potential. C/SS Will Biggs will be one of the sophomores that the Camels will count on to lead them this spring. Biggs, at 5-foot-9, 145-pounds, runs a 7.25 60, with pop times between 2.40 and 2.53. The Camels will also count on sophomore Tommy Steward and senior Matt Campbell to play big roles this spring. The Campbell look to improve on a 12-7 record in 2014, and get past an extra innings loss to Portageville in the district semifinal.
