2018 Record: 17-6
FHSAA Class: 4A
Head Coach: Tommy Bond
Playoff Run: Lost in Regional Final
Returning Starters: 8

TOP PLAYERS
Name, Position, Class (College Commitment)
Tyler Owens, RHP, 2019 (Florida)
Bryce Boone, C, 2019 (FSU)
Hayden Muecke, RHP, 2019 (Air Force)
Deric Fabian, MIF, 2021 (Florida)
Hayden Kimball, MIF, 2020

X-FACTOR
Tyler Owens.  The Florida commit has a fastball in the mid-90s and has a chance to dominate at the top of the rotations.

KEY PLAYERS LOST
Jud Fabian

OUTLOOK
Despite losing Fabian as an early enrollee to Florida, Trinity Catholic still have a pair of Division 1 committed players leading the offense as well as a pair of Division 1 arms leading the rotation. Tyler Owens will lead the way on the mound. Owens has a mid-90s fastball and above average curveball that will give him the ability to dominate at the top of the rotation. Muecke also has a very good breaking ball and a fell to pitch. The one two punch should result in a lot of wins for the Celtics. Boone is a physical presence in the middle of the order and Deric Fabian has emerged as a big time offensive talent.
