DI
I believe Gahanna Lincoln will be in the top 8 for DI this coming year. They are a fun team to watch. That program is on the come up for sure. I think they suprised alot of people last year with their run.
Watkins lost some seniors but Carsyn Cassidy (Pitcher) is still there. Added a few studs in the field too.
Lancaster lost a couple senior starters but Both pitchers back and strong incoming freshman class.
- Oak Hills should have a solid year. They have a solid core of seniors this year for 2023. Great pitcher, Avery Gottlieb. I believe 7 2023 senior college commits. Plus some strong underclassman players, Gretchen Hansen, & Julia Abbott. Just a couple I can think of on that team.
Austintown Fitch will be strong as long as Syd watts (Pitcher) is healthy.
Lakota West is always strong, but they lost some studs. Belle Hummel, KK Mathis, also their catcher. Maybe a few others.
DII
Triway-Lost 7 seniors class of 2022. Ace will be back for them (Pitcher) Carter Wachtel. Having her alone is a big advantage for Triway IMO. Not sure what they have coming in for freshmans.
Alder- always tough.
Heath- Should be solid. 23 class has solid pitcher/U (Renee Cunningham) few other solid athletes.
Lexington- should be solid. Lost a couple solid seniors but should be fine.
John Glenn- should be good. stacked 23 & 24 class.
This is all I can think of off top of my head.
Looking forward to some great HS games this coming spring. I will be rooting my Local teams on. Watkins Memorial (Pataskala- Hometown) & Lancaster (Daughter played & graduated from there). Also Gahanna Lincoln.
*updated- Fixed my mistake.
