Head coach: Chris Campbell

2018 record: 13-8 (8-4)

Key players: Logan O’Neil, jr., pitcher/outfielder; Charlie Hennessy, jr., catcher; Taylor Andrews, jr., outfielder; Brayden Buchanan, so., shortstop/pitcher; Dylan Heino, sr., first base; Justin Finnegan, jr., pitcher; Kyle Jeter, so., second base; Jaeden Orteza, jr., outfield; Braden Paulino, so., pitcher/outfield; Brandon Silivelio, so., pitcher/third base.

Outlook: The Trojans graduated a number of seniors off of last year’s district tournament team, but have a strong core of sophomores and juniors ready to take the reins along with a first-year head coach in Campbell. Despite their relative varsity inexperience, a return trip to the playoffs seems to be a reasonable outcome for this group.
