Team: Allen Park Inter-City Baptist Chargers
Class: Division 4
League: Michigan Independent Athletic Conference
Head Coach: Bob Radu
2013 Overall Record: 13-11
Returning Players: 10

TOP PLAYERS

Evan Kraatz (senior) ... Hit .507 as a junior with ten doubles.
Luke Barber (junior) ... Hit .438 as a sophomore. Also threw 30+ innings.
Anthony Saenz (junior) ... Hit .373 as a sophomore.
Nathan Estell (senior) ... Threw 30+ innings as a junior.

OUTLOOK:

The Chargers should be competitive this year. They return ten players from a thirteen win team. Several players just finished a Regional Final run on the school basketball team, so they bring toughness to the table. Veteran coach Bob Radu only lost two seniors from his 2013 team and should expect big things from his team in 2014.
