2020 OUTLOOK:
The 2020 Titans will be lead by Captains Connor Huffman and Brock Bertelsen. Huffman is back for his 4th year as a Varsity starter and Bertelsen begins his 3rd year on the Varsity. Riley Brockopp and Brandon Lockhart should be a good Lefty/Righty for our pitching staff and also play a position when not pitching. Bo Strecker comes back after having a year of Varsity experience at 2nd base. We should have competition at a handful of positions to round out our starting 9. We look to compete in every game and should be able to put some runs on the board.” Head Coach Curt Russell
