2017 OUTLOOK
"We need to fill the void left on the mound, losing our top 3 pitchers for the second year in a row.  The only good about graduation is that it gives other players a chance to step up so it will be exciting to see who competes for playing time.  Our seniors will have to do a great job of leading this young team." Head Coach Casey Klunder
