OUTLOOK

Stoneman Douglas comes into 2021 with a pretty deep team despite losing 3B Coby Mayo to the Draft. They have one of the deepest pitching staffs in the state with 8 guys that are 87 mph or better led by Christian Rodriguez, Jake Clemente (Florida), Kyle Morse (Nova), and Sammy Beir. Offensively, they will be led by a pair of impact transfers in Roman Anthony (Ole Miss) and Gavin Conticello (USF), as well as returners Santiago Ordonez (Florida State), Chris McKenna (Gardner-Webb), and Roli Lujo.
