WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
Expectations for Team - Erwin will be an experienced club in 2023 returning key pieces from an offense that showed it could score runs in 2022. If the pitching can continue to develop Erwin could play spoiler in the Mountain 3A/4A conference.
Expected Team Strength - We look to be strong again at the plate returning our top 5 leaders in hits from the 2022 season. Seven starters will return from the 2022 lineup that produced: 117H, 6HR, 25 2Bs 2 3Bs, 87R, and 26SB's.
QUOTE FROM THE COACH:
I am excited to see the growth from our young pitching staff from last season to this season. We had many young guys step into big roles down the stretch last year due to injuries.
