SHADOW RIDGE
Head coach: Frank Tousa, fifth season
2012 record: 17-15 (9-7 Northwest)
Returning lettermen (starters): 14 (Six)
Top players: P/1B Logan Hold (Sr.), OF Demetrios Philippou (Sr.), P/OF Logan Crump (Sr.), IF Brady Hoskins (Jr.), C/OF Jordan Hand (Jr.), C Jacob Rooney (Sr.)
Outlook: The Mustangs bring back six starters and host of reserves from a team that qualified for the Sunset Region playoffs last year.
Hold might have had the worst luck of any pitcher last season, going 2-6 despite a 2.11 ERA, and Tousa expects him to be the team’s go-to pitcher.
Hold also hit .392. The Mustangs also reserve two additional weapons in Crump (.429) and Philippou (.400).
"We will have to take a team approach to hitting and manufacture runs," Tousa said.
