2016 Centennial Baseball Capsule

Head coach: Charles Cerrone, 17th season

2015 record: 24-13 (2-6 Northwest, fourth)

Returning lettermen (starters): Eight (two)

Top players: C Hayden Grant (Sr.), IF Frank Sessa (Sr.), IF/OF Bryce Rheault (Sr.), C/OF Jarod Grimm (Sr.), P/IF Kyle Horton (Jr.), P/IF Jake Rogers (Jr.), P/IF Hayden Rosenkrantz (Jr.), P/IF Garrett Holden (So.), P/OF Austin Kryszczuk (Fr.)

Outlook: Centennial returns just two starters, but still has plenty of talent.

“Our team graduated six starters and most of our pitching innings,” Cerrone said. “Also, we lost two starters to season-ending injuries. We are young and inexperienced.

“Hopefull as the season progresses, we will get that experience and qualify for the playoffs. We have a good group of young men that are hard working, and we think that will help.”
