Coach: Brian Dube (third year)

Last year’s record: 9-8, lost in Western B prelim

Returning letter-winners: Seniors — Scottie Hall (P/SS/OF), Lucas Preble (P/SS), John McKenna (OF/P), Brandon Stearns (3B/P); Sophomores — Ian O’Donnell  (C), Sebastian Lombardi (2B/P).

Key losses: Payton Kennison, Matt Vigue, Pat Ryan.

Promising newcomers: Juniors — Dylan Smith (1B/DH/P), Bradley Hodges (1B/DH), Shane Missler (OF), Denton Bilodeau (OF/C); Sophomore — Tom Young (OF); Freshmen — Noah Preble (2B/OF/P), Nate Goodine  (3B/OF/P), Austin Gilboe (SS/OF/P), Colin Parker (C/OF/P).

Season outlook: Dube says this is the youngest team he’s ever had, going back to his days at Livermore Falls. Kennison, the workhorse of the pitching staff last year, transferred to Cony. Hall and Lucas Preble will take up the majority of the work load. Stearns led the team in RBIs last year, and O’Donnell and Lombardi were pressed into service late in the season as freshmen. Other than that, there is not much varsity experience. The hope is one of the freshmen emerges as a reliable third outfielder and some of the young arms can contribute on the mound.
