2024 OUTLOOK

”We lost a great number of players from our 2023 team, but I feel very confident with the players that will be filling out the lineup. They all gained valuable experience on the Legion team over the summer and work hard in the off-season. We return some great senior leaders and a great deal of experience on the mound.” - Jordan Bale, Head Coach
