The 37-man roster features 11 lettermen including seven starters led by seniors Stevenson, Nunguesser, Hacker, Hermreck, Yoder, Pracht, and sophomore Ryman. Pitching strength is noted as only one pitcher departed from last year. The team trains indoors amid spring weather with two batting cages and ample throwing space.
