WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
Expectations for Team - The Trojan lineup will feature plenty of athleticism in 2023 and the pitching staff returns five arms from last season. Their lineup has a chance to be competitive one through nine. They will look to challenge Myers Park and Ardrey Kell for the South Meck 4A Conference Title in 2023.
Expected Team Strength - The 2023 team returns 7 starters from a team that while only finished 4th in the So-Meck 7, it competed and took both Myers Park and Ardrey Kell to the late innings. With the addition of two varsity transfers, expectations are high to have a tough line-up to get through. One through nine will all be able to hit for average and with the ability to run at all nine spots. The Outfield should be a bright spot defensively in a spacious home park.
QUOTE FROM THE COACH:
On paper we are supposed to be good, but paper doesn't win conference championships. Embrace the grind and lets get after it!
