2024 OUTLOOK

”We are very excited to begin the 2024 High School Baseball season. 2023 was a really fun year, and we lost 3 large leaders on and off the field. We have a talented group returning and many hungry players who really like the game of baseball. Pitching depth will be one our greatest assets this year as well as baseball athletes that can play numerous positions. These two factors should provide us a great opportunity to have a really fun summer.” -SHELDON CARD, Head Coach
