Owen Hindermann - Hibbing CC
2024 OUTLOOK
”We return a great deal of at-bats and innings in the field, but will need a lot of key innings replaced on the mound with the graduation of Owen Hindermann (Hibbing CC). We can compete with anyone in our section for sure, but that breaks both ways - meaning we can beat anyone when we play well, but can also lose to anyone if we play poorly.” - Joe Wicklund, Head Coach
