The Neuqua Valley baseball team lost significant talent from last season's 20-win team but have opened up with a strong start to raise expectations.
The Wildcats have picked up quality contributions from several players early in the season, notably junior second baseman Andrew Gould, junior outfielder Paul Feret, senior catcher Mark Wagner and starting pitchers AJ McEneany, Dan Cercello and Mark Mennecke.
"I'm pleased with what we're getting from our pitchers. The big three really feed off one another, and they go as hard as they can. They create a competitive energy that makes each pitcher want to toe the rubber and compete to keep us in each game." Coach Steve Colombe said the Mustangs will get some good news this week with the return of junior Jeremy Wrona and senior catcher Jake LaVine.
St. Francis update: St. Francis is looking for a rebound week after suffering losses to Neuqua Valley and Wheaton North to close out last week. The Spartans spent the tail end of last month in Orlando, playing in three official games for a 2-1 mark."We had a wonderful experience again," Ciombor said of the spring break trip."We played five games total and learned a lot about our team and had tons of practice and playing time.
