What to Watch For

Coach Miriello lost nearly the entire pitching staff from 2016’s trip to the 3rd round.  He will lean on his seniors to continue to set the bar high for a talented but young roster.  Look for the Hawks to continue to get better throughout the year and be ready for the post-season, especially if a couple of arms step up.
