Coach Crawford on his 2018 team:

“83-24 over the past 3 seasons. Return 6 position starters and 14 wins return on the mound. Replacing starting SS and CF will be a challenge. Expect to be favorite in the tough Mid-Illini Conference (a team from the conference has made it to the Super-Sectional in each of the past 5 seasons). Goal is to get to State Finals after being 1 win away in 2017.”
