Pat Cummings returns to right field and hits cleanup. A.J.Nash will play first base, Cullen Crocker will play some 3rd base and outfieldas. Connor O’Donnell will also play third base and DH.

Senior Jake Centrella and sophomore Cam Cooper will rotate between second base and catching. Senior Dillon Heefner will see some time in the outfield and Richie St. George will see time at third base.

KEYS TO THE SEASON:

We are a senior heavy team with plenty of experience that we hope will help us this season. A few of the things we have talked about is not getting complacent; that our past success doesn’t mean anything this season.

We need to continue to work hard and to expect to get our opponent’s best effort because of our past success. We have great senior leadership that will no doubt help us navigate this spring.
