Head Coach: Sean McBride

TEAM BIO
Coach McBride on his 2019 team:

We feel this is as good of a team as we’ve had here. I was the long time assistant and now new head coach. We can really swing it and fly around the bases.  Our lineup will be made up of older experienced players. We are lacking a dominate arm but have plenty of depth on the mound, including some very young talent we expect to mature.
