WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
Expectations for Team - The Apex lineup in 2023 will feature mostly juniors and sophomores. The pitching staff will be led by lefty Alan Garod. While they are younger the lineup will have athleticism and should help Apex compete for another playoff berth this season.
QUOTE FROM THE COACH:
I am very excited for this years team. The Seniors we had last year really laid the groundwork and exemplified what Apex Baseball stands for. Now it is the younger guys time to take over that role. The returners are hungry and ready to get after it after last year's playoff run.
