What to Watch For

West Meck enters the year expecting to make continued progress.  Returning 7 from last year’s lineup, with plenty of speed, the Hawks should be able to create some havoc when they are on the bases, leading to runs.  Defensively solid, the key will be for Coach Allen’s team to fill the zone up on the bump.
