ACCORDING TO THE COACH:

"This will be a very interesting year for us. Returning three very good seniors, two in which will anchor our pitching staff as No. 1 and No. 2 - Jordan Miller and Josh Baker, both first team All-State selections from a year ago. We will rely heavily on those guys, and senior utility man Zach Seibel. We will ask a lot from some young players that got a lot of playing time a year ago. Obviously, our expectations should never change, we hope to make a return trip to Charleston, after being knocked out by a very good South Harrison team at year ago."
