Baseball Season Preview

At EMHS, baseball has never seen much of the spotlight, but this year, things just might be about to change.  As 2nd year Coach Jason Stulmiller put it, "If everything goes as planned, we could make it all the way to the championship game."  Stulmiller would know: he played catcher for EMU two years before coming to EMHS.  This season brings many new players to the Flames, including Connor Wolfe, Isaac Driver, and Jae White.

Said senior pitcher Stefan Baughman, "Right now our biggest challenge is just staying healthy... staying healthy and keeping our guys academically legible."  That may indeed be a problem.  Both JV Soccer and Basketball have had players benched due to poor grades.  But Baughman is quick to add, "We've got a bunch of talent.  Our team could really play well this year."

Whatever happens, count on it being a bonding experience for both players and coaches.  8th Grade Outfielder Isaac Driver told me "It's been pretty hilarious.  (My teammates) are really funny."
