Notes on the Team:

We lost two tremendous leaders in Morrow and Rosfeld, but return a good core from last years team which went three rounds deep. Ben Woodchick and Dominic Hamilton will return to lead the pitching staff after having a solid year in 2007. District 26-5A will be tough as always, but I feel we have a chance to do some good things.
