WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
Expected Team Strength - Pitching and Defense will be our backbone. We expect to be solid on the mound, and play good defense. We have tremendous upperclassmen leadership, and we are expecting big things from them.

QUOTE FROM THE COACH:
I can't wait to see us get out there and compete against other teams. We have really been getting after it this fall and winter during the open seasons. As a staff we can't wait to see how all their hard work materializes on the field. We have a bunch of guys with little varsity experience who have been chomping at the bit to leave their own mark on YCHS Baseball. We are just excited to see our guys compete.
