OUTLOOK

The Providence Pioneers head into 2015 following a 18-11 record in 2014.  The Pioneers return 6 starters and 4 pitchers.  Jake Lewis (2017) returns as a sophomore following a strong freshman year after hitting .354 with 72B, 18 RBI and a 4.00 ERA and 16K in 14IP on the mound.  Cam Harvey is another returning sophomore RHP who Coach Hornung looks to rely on again this year.  He had 47IP with 7 wins and a 1.47 ERA and 59K last season.  Justin Betz will be one of the team leaders in the OF as he returns to the lineup after hitting .328 with 19 runs scored.  Parker Graf hit .348 as a freshman with 12RBI last year.  Also, Jay Lorenz (2016) returns after hitting .309 with 16 RBI.  The Pioneers lost 2016 Tre Watson to an injury this spring.  Coach Hornung expects a very competitive group this spring as his young guys mature this season
