2024 Outlook: The Panthers return four starters from 2023’s Historic run into the State Playoffs. A new group of young talent has been working hard in the off-season and is looking to make the most of their opportunities. Cole Hubert will anchor a young and relatively inexperienced pitching staff.

How fast this group adapts to Varsity Life will determine how far the Panthers will go into their 2024 Season.
