TOP RETURNERS (Commit)
Tyler Zimmerman, RHP/OF, 2015
Mark Terrell, 1B, 2016
Shane Buss, SS/RHP, 2016
Timmy Stephan, 3B/RHP, 2017
Jacob Zoller, UTIL/RHP, 2017
Outlook:
The Highland School had a strong 2014 season, going 10-3 and finishing first in the Delaney Conference during the regular season. The 2015 Hawks look to repeat their regular season crown and make a run into the VISAA Tournament this year. The Hawks return their top two arms from last year in Shane Buss (RHP, 2016) and Tyler Zimmerman (RHP, 2015) and will be deep on the mound. Their offense will be led 1st Team All VISAA State selection Mark Terrell (1B, 2016) and youngsters Timmy Stephan (IF/RHP, 2017) and Jacob Zoller (Util, 2017). The Hawks will rely on their pitching and defense and an offense built around power hitting to carry them to a strong 2015.
