OUTLOOK: Veteran lineup that is strong defensively and can hit. Pitching will be the key. Seniors Andi Kratzenvberg, Karlee McMackin and Rebekkah Potter are four-year starters who can hit and field. SS Potter has a cannon for an arm and CF McMackin can go and get it with the best. 3B Laken White and C Saige Fields are returning starters who play well defensively. LF Taylor Monk has been impressive defensively. Good depth.

NOTABLE: Potter tied the single-season home run record last year and she has already signed to play next fall with the Division I University of Dayton.
