2017 TEAM PREVIEW: Bremen Lions

Head Coach: Chad Gerard
Class: 2A
2016 Record: 20-8
Conference (2016 Record): Northern Indiana Conference (10-2)
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 4/1

2017 Team Strengths:

• Starting Pitching
• Team Speed
• Defense 

Top Returning Players:

• Nathan Mullen, RHP, 2019: 8-1 2.09ERA 72K 17BB
• Jacob Strehler, DH/P, 2018: .414BA 24RBI 
• Zach Burkholder, 2018: .348BA
• Alex Stouder, OF, 2019
• Zach DeBaets, P/1B, 2017 

Outlook:  Bremen had a very successful 2016 campaign as they finished 20-8, 10-2 in conference.  They graduated 11 seniors and only return one pitcher from last year's rotation.  Nathan Mullen had a standout freshman year going 8-1 on the mound as he looks to build off of that to lead the Lions this year.  Bremen brings back some speed and versatility as they try to gain experience the first part of this upcoming spring.
