2020 OUTLOOK:
“The Jackets are defending Section 8AA Champs and have reloaded to contend for another section title in 2020 by developing pitching depth and committing everyday to become bigger, faster and stronger. On paper it looks like one of the strongest non-conference schedules for a AA school, seeing AAAA schools; Anoka, Park Center, Moorhead and Duluth East (double header). These challenges in the regular season will prepare Perham for a deep playoff run.” Head Coach James Mulcahy
