X-FACTOR

Lavin, if he is healthy it really gives us experience and dominating stuff on mound.

OUTLOOK

Coach Cleveland: "The lineup is deep but, with the schedule we play we will have to play very good baseball consistently. There is talent for sure, but no dominant arm to lean on. It really just depends on how these guys play each day. A well played game gives them a chance to beat almost anyone, but if we don’t play well, anyone on our schedule could beat us. That’s always the goal at Creek to play the toughest schedule we can. Our District is very tough with Lake Mary and Deland both having multiple D1 arms..Hopefully we can play our best baseball at the end of the season and try and make a run.
