The 2012 year was quite a challenge for us. There is no doubt that injuries hampered the win column for us. We entered five tournaments and played "average" ball, but as always, we had a great time at the games. Over all the players that attended all of the games did very well and the new comers were exceptional. We hope to see everyone next year.
The 2012 season presented some challenges for new Manager Ryan Kotlarchuk. It was tough without our number one starting pitcher for the entire season and we were left to fill that large gap with what amounted to two rookies. We had some early season defensive struggles and an offence that hadn’t found its groove yet that led to a 0-5 start which in an 18 game season is debilitating. However, after the 0-5 start and some small changes to the line-up it was as if someone had flicked a switch in the club and we reeled off 4 straight wins and remained in the playoff hunt until the last couple games of the season. Managing to score the second most amount of runs in the league is something the team can hang their hat on this year but the off season will be spent figuring out ways to stop giving up too many runs in early season games.
