2025 Spring Team Preview: Princeton Vikings

Team Name: Princeton Vikings
Head Coach: Gino McGowens
Division: I
2024 Record: 14-12
2024 Tourney Finish: Sectional Finals loss to Turpin
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 7/4

Coach Outlook: "The Vikings return 7 starters from a 14-12 team last year. The second winning record in a row after going 14 years without a winning record. We graduated our best pitcher and two outfield starters. Each of them is playing college baseball this season. The solid core of returning players is hungry to continue the winning ways. Our goal each year is to compete in every game. If we can compete in the GMC, the best D1 conference in the state we can compete with anyone. Our motto is, 'Trust the Process, Trust each Other'."
