Loaded staff. Lots of speed in the OF. A true no fly zone out there for us this year. We have solid defense all around and a very unique lineup that will constantly pressure the opposing team.
What was the focus during the fall for the team?
Embrace the past. Attack the future. And to build a brotherhood that will last forever. Could not be more proud of every member of our program. The credit goes to our assistants for bringing relentless energy every day and to our players for buying in from day 1.
