OUTLOOK
The Golden Eagles return six starters from last year's 15-8 campaign – and of those six, two of them were two of the top players in South Jersey as juniors. Maryland recruit '18 Nick Decker is one of the top power threats in the state, and country, for that matter. Decker has a chance to be a Top 5 rounder inds June's MLB Draft with his left handed swing. Decker will be the leader of the pitching staff as well, the left hander possesses a fastball that sits in the upper 80s and can touch 90. Gsell emerged as one of the top players in South Jersey last year – and complemented the middle of the order very well with the elite power of Decker. Expect Seneca to compete for a division and sectional crown.
