OUTLOOK:  

Last season, Milford captured the ECC title, but the face of the conference looks much different in 2014. Loveland's young squad is more experienced. Anderson gained the addition of one of the nation's top prospects in Zack Shannon. Meanwhile, Turpin High School enters it's second year under the direction of head coach Adam Nemo. The Spartans return several key parts from a team that showed promise in 2013. Senior Nick Lubanski will anchor the team behind the plate. Fellow senior Derek Varner, who .291 with 13 RBI last season, will be a key part of the Turpin offense as well as a mainstay on the left-side of the infield. Corey Flynn, who went 2-0 with a 3.07 ERA despite missing half the season due to injury, will return as one of the team's top arms.
