What to Watch For
Pitching should carry the Pride and set the tone for their 2017 season. The SO & JR class have high end talent but overall there is a lack of varsity experience. If Coach Civitello can get the conference season off to a good start, and confidence rises, the Pride could be in the mix in the Cap 8.
