   This year, students hope they can improve the record they have had in past years. “Our goal this year is to go undefeated.  I personally think this goal can be reached as long as we stay focused through the whole season,” said Sophomore Andrew Ideker, who is hoping for a varsity spot this year.  The season opener for the baseball team is on April 5 at Harrisburg.
