Coach: Scott Annear (14th year)

Last year’s record: 5-11

Returning letter-winners: Seniors — Nate Pushard (P/3B/1B), Mike Hammond (2B/SS/P), Evan Raymond (C/OF), Brian Crane (1B/P); Juniors — Lew Jensen (SS/2B/P), Brandon Knapp (OF/P), Luke Sterling (OF).

Key losses: John Simpson, Sean Ford, Corey Henderson.

Promising newcomers: Seniors — Kyle Karkos (IF), Mikey Lawerence (1B/DH); Junior — Elijah Roe (3B/SS/P); Sophomores — Drew Lashua (C/OF), Brandon Varney (C/IF/P).

Season outlook: If pitching alone could guarantee a playoff spot, the Red Eddies would be making postseason plans. Pushard, the staff ace, is back. He and Hammond are three-year varsity starters and the keys to the pitching staff and offense. The Eddies struggled to score runs last year, so getting the bats going early will be important.
