Coaches comment: Jacob Grassett returns to anchor what looks to be a deep, but unproven pitching staff. The Sabers will rely on a nice blend of experience and youth for what has the makings of a solid defensive club. Dan Trezpacz will look to lead the offense by building upon a tremendous offensive season as a sophomore, and the keys will be developing a solid supporting line up around him. Souhegan is scheduled to open the season April 8th visiting rival Hollis-Brookline.

New Hampshire Division II figures to be very deep and wide following the departure of perennial powers Portsmouth, Goffstown and Windham to Division I. Kennett returns a veteran team who made a deep run in 2018, Hollis-Brookline, John Stark, Plymouth and St Thomas are among several teams expected to be in the hunt for the title.
