Valley 2013 Baseball Capsule
VALLEY
Head coach: Gary Findley, 11th season
2012 record: 10-10 (7-7 Northeast)
Returning lettermen (starters): Five (Four)
Top players: OF Rayce Rayos (Sr.), IF/P Kevin Rocha (Sr.)
Outlook: The Vikings bring back only five lettermen from a team that tied for fourth in the Northeast League but missed out on a postseason berth on a tiebreaker.
Rayos was a first-team all-league honoree and hit .476 last season. He and Rocha (.323) are expected to be among the offensive leaders.
"We are young and inexperienced," Findley said. "We need early wins to learn how to compete in tough league play."
