    “That is one positive to not having any seniors is because you have the same players back,” Stone said.

    Having a new coach, a new system and no seniors on the team was difficult for the girls last season, and on him, Stone said. This year’s team will be better because the girls now have varsity experience and understand the system.

    Yager said he was really proud of the team last year and had a great group of seniors.

    Commonwealth Stadium has been missing something for years.

    Athletics Director Mitch Barnhart hasn’t been able to put his finger on it, it’s just a feeling.
