HIgh School Team Preview: Covenant Christian Academy
January 28, 2019
The Louisiana high school season kicks off on February 18, the first day for regular season games. Most teams began practice on January 22nd, getting their rosters set and finalizing their lineups.
Over the next several weeks, leading up to opening day, we will be rolling out team previews of high school teams all across the state and across all classifications, eventually launching our Preseason Power 25.
We have been sending out our annual Preseason Questionnaire to coaches all across the state and as the responses flood in we will bring you a snapshot of what to expect along with top players and keys to success for that particular team. If you don’t see your team’s season preview make sure your head coach fills out his Preseason Questionnaire.

Outlook
After a successful 2018 season that resulted in a district title and a Quarter Final appearance, the Lions look to capture a state title in 2019. Coach Joe Teuton is known as a consistent winner, putting together quality, competitive clubs’ year in and year out. He will have a veteran club in 2019, returning six everyday starters and three pitchers, and will look to capitalize on his team’s speed this season.
