Coaches comment: “Seven returning starters led by seniors Francis Calandrella, Dawson Bates and Sam Bates; juniors Zach Aldrich, Bennett Hewett and Nick Brill will look to lead the offense with their explosive bats and speed. Zach Aldrich and Dawson Bates will anchor a pitching staff that is deep in numbers, but not experience. We are looking to be a very competitive and explosive team in a division that has a ton of talented teams. Hollis Brookline and Souhegan look to be the favorites, but Division II might very well be a dog fight this year.”
