WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
Expectations for Team - The Wolverines will rely on the depth of their pitching staff in 2023. Holden Cooper and Braden Beyer should play key roles in a lineup that returns 4 starters from last season. If their arms stay healthy and they can get some timely hitting Wakefield should be in position for another playoff appearance this season.

QUOTE FROM THE COACH:
We are excited for this spring season.  The boys have been working hard all year.  This is a really special group.
