Predictions for C.R. Washington baseball in 2011
Strengths
Cedar Rapids Washington returns six starters from last year’s team. The Warriors will combine six pitchers with varsity experience and four young guns to find options for their pitching staff.
Dakota Freese will be their ace on the mound. Anytime he is pitching there is a pretty good chance for a win.
Jordy Brown brings a .406 average into his senior season and will be a challenge to opposing pitchers.
Challenges
Warrior Coach Byron Schlotterback said he sees numbers as the primary challenge for his team this summer.
“Having a small varsity roster will prevent flexibility when making changes in game situations,” he said. “Injuries could prove devastating, so we are looking for some young players to step up for us and compete at the varsity level.”
