By Greg Williams

As we prepare for the upcoming 2014 high school season, we will be taking a preseason glimpse at programs from around the state.

Nickname:
Bishops
Class:
1A
League:
OVAC
Head Coach: Bob Kleeh
2013 Overall Record: 15-11 (Lost in section finals)

TOP PLAYERS:

Bryce Jones, SS (Class of 2014)
Hunter Kaschke, RHP (Class of 2014, 1st Team All-State 2013)
Alex Riedel, C (Class of 2015)

SEASON OUTLOOK:  

The Bishops lost two key starters to injury in the off-season but return 1st Team All-State RHP Hunter Kaschke. With junior Alex Riedel behind the plate and senior SS Bryce Jones, the Bishops' are strong defensively up the middle.

Bishop Donahue finished last season 15-11 but is just one year removed from a 34-9 season and a loss in the region finals to Madonna HS, the 2012 Class A state champions.
