2014 Overall Record: 16-7
2014 Post-Season Finish: Lost in Regional First Round

TOP RETURNERS (Commit)

Ben Coulter, RHP, 2015
Hayden Almond, LHP/OF, 2018
Caleb Hanks, OF, 2016
Matt Dooley, LHP/OF, 2015
Jacob Bise, OF, 2015
Kane Dalton, RHP, 2015

Other Players of Interest for the Bees: Jared Cooper (2015), Zachary Walker (2017, C)

Outlook:
Brookville looks to build on last year’s Regional Tournament appearance while replacing a major portion of their offense. The Bees do bring back a deep rotation, which will be led by seniors Ben Coulter (RHP), Matt Dooley (LHP), and Kane Dalton (RHP). That experience on the mound will be a key to Brookville’s success this year. The Bees will catch a lot of fly balls for their pitching staff as they have an athletic outfield led by senior Jacob Bise (OF), junior Caleb Hanks (LHP/OF), and extremely talented freshmen Hayden Almond (LHP/OF). The Bees will rely on a formula of pitching and defense to limit opposing offenses and take advantage of their good team speed to produce runs and look to use that combination to have another strong season in the strong Seminole Conference.
