Coach: Lonney Steeves (eighth year)

Conference: MVC; Class: C

Last year’s results: 7-0 Regular Season, fourth at Class C state championship, runner-up at MVC championship.

Returning athletes: Seniors — Zac Robertson, Charlie de Haas, Brogan Plossay; Junior — Carson Camick; Sophomore — Ben Thomas.

Key loss: Anthony Owens.

Promising newcomers: Freshmen — Bradley Bourne, Zach Pray.

Season outlook: Graduating only one senior, Winthrop returns depth with a lot of players who have played a lot of matches. The team has good balance; no one who is shooting very low numbers, but top five players all in the 40s. The Ramblers hope for a high seed in the playoffs and to qualify the team for the Class C state championship.
