2022 OUTLOOK:
“We finished the year last year winning 8-3 in our last 11 games and really started to pitch well. We started 4 sophomores and 3 juniors on that team. We believe we have a deep pitching staff with some dominant arms at the top. Last year was the first year of varsity for all but 1 player on our team so we are confident our hitters will make a second year jump. If that happens we think this year could be a special one.”
