What to Watch For

A young team only returns three from the ’16 lineup, but the pitching staff should provide leadership.  Coach Nail will lean on the staff to keep the Raiders in games early as the offense and defensive lineups are stabilized.  Even with the youth, there is talent.  Expect Reagan to continue to get better throughout the year.
