WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
Expectations for Team - The Tigers bring back eight starters from last year’s club that won the Yadkin Valley Tournament Title and made a run to the sweet 16 in the 2A. They have three quality arms to go along with their experienced lineup. If they can stay healthy they should be in position to be playing late in the playoffs once again.
QUOTE FROM THE COACH:
I'm really excited about this years team as we return 8 starters from last years Yadkin Valley Tournament Champion team and a team that made the 3rd round of the state playoffs last year. These guys are ready for really tough 2023 schedule that will hopefully prepare us for another run.
