UNDERCLASS PLAYERS TO WATCH

SEASON OUTLOOK
The Huskies return most of the innings pitched from 2014 so the top of the rotation should be solid. Oelwein should be stable in they can build depth on the back-end of the staff. The biggest challenge will be to replace the loss of their 3, 4 and 5 hole hitters from last year and be able to contribute offensively in the middle of the order.
