Coach: Steve LaPointe (35th year)

Last year’s record: 8-6

Returning letter-winners: Juniors — Caleb Gauvin (1B), Ian Austin (OF/P), Tom Marshall (SS).

Key losses: Adam Volkernick, Josh Rainey, Colin Merrill, Dylan Akers, Sean Murphy, Ryan  Nicols.

Promising newcomers: Juniors — Josh Mason (P/OF), Tucker Rowland (C/OF); Sophomores — Tim Fitzgerald (P), Alex Ridley (IF); Freshman — Logan Willhoite (P/OF).

Season outlook: No seniors and no varsity pitching experience means a rebuilding season for the Falcons. LaPointe is looking for the players to develop, continue the hard work they’ve put into the preseason and hope they can surprise some in the MVC.
