Coaches: Lisa Russell and Deb Buotte (third year)
Last year’s record: 10-4, lost in Western B preliminary.
Returning letter-winners: Seniors — Katie Collette C, Kasey Smith 1B, Katie Mills 2B, Aly Carlton OF, Shannon Laubauskas OF, Karissa Murphy OF, Kelsie Blanchard UT; Juniors — Lindsay Marston P, Adelle Oswald UT; Sophomores — Karen Flaherty SS, Sydney Petrie UT.
Promising newcomers: Junior — Samantha Higley; Freshmen — Emily Laubauskas, Abbey Mazza.
Season outlook: The Falcons return much of last year’s team and make the move to Class C after reaching the tourney in Western B. Mountain Valley has seasoned players in the battery, around the infield and in the outfield. That much experience could make the Falcons a formidable team in the MVC and in the Western C playoff field.
