2016 Team Strengths:
2016 Team Weaknesses:
Coach Outlook: Head coach Matt Weymer "Ursuline returns a talented group of experienced upperclassmen for the 2016 season. The Irish will move into Division II this year for the first time and will face a very demanding schedule in preparations for tournament play."
PBR Outlook: Youngstown Ursuline could be a dark-horse in Division II this season. The Fighting Irish move up to D-II after spending years in Division III. Ursuline also has a new man leading the way in Matt Weymer. Matt has proved to be a successful coach as he led his former school, Springfield, to a 101-38 record over five season, winning three district titles, two regional title and state runner-up twice.
