Boys’ Baseball It wasn’t just o¤ense that powered the Raiders’ attack as they captured their second consecutive Regional Championship. The squad posted a solid .284 team batting average, led by Andrew Potter ’17 with a .400. They had a team on-base percentage of .388, averaged 5.89 runs per game and stole 114 bases on the year, led by Sam Kayser ’15 with 17 sb. But balance was the key for the Raiders baseball team this year en route to posting a 19–10 record. The team fielded at a .930 clip, and the pitching sta¤ posted a collective 3.25 e.r.a. , led by Gordie Rohrbach ’15 with a 2.00 with 80 strikeouts in 52 innings. While the veteran squad will graduate eight seniors, the future continues to look bright as a solid nucleus of young talent will return next season.
