Outlook: The Mustangs bring back plenty of experience with 13 lettermen back.

Wilson (7-1, 1.40 ERA, .421 average), Blaylock (2-4, 1.80, .412), Burton (2-3, 1.98, .464) are back to lead the pitching staff and are joined on offense by McDonald (.355), Jordan (.338), Chambers (.319) and Galvan (.296).

“We hope to battle for a league title and/or home field for a playoff game,” Tousa said. “We have some experience returning with three of our top four pitchers coming back.

“Tyler Burton, Jake Wilson and Isaiah Blaylock will anchor our pitching staff. Chris Opolka and Trevin Reynolds also got some valuable experience last year on the mound as closers. Tyler Burton, Eric Jordan, Robbie Galvan, Dustin McDonald and Jakob Chambers will lead our hitting efforts.”
