LAS VEGAS
Head coach: Sam Thomas, 20th season
2017 record: 13-19 (9-11 4A Sunrise/eighth)
Returning lettermen (starters): Nine (four)
Top players: OF/P Kevin Verduzco (Sr.), IF/P Payton Miller (Sr.), IF/P Nate Freimuth (Jr.)
Outlook: The Wildcats bring back four starters from a team that qualified for the Sunrise Region playoffs.
Verduzco (.267 average), Miller (.280) and Freimuth (.273) are expected to be among the leaders on the club.
“We are young and inexperienced,” Thomas said. “We’re hoping to compete.”
