Through two games thus far, the Clinton Maroons baseball team has "surprised" Coach John Hickman.

The first two games the young Maroon squad has only committed one error and Coach Hickman says that is something he has seen out of his teams in some time. Coach Hickman says he does not have a deep team this year, so everyone is going to have to step up.

It's no secret last year's team was quite talented and a lot of that talent graduated on, however, Coach Hickman says he has not shied away from letting his team know they need to work to overcome that by playing solid defense.

Coach Hickman says he has five juniors with a good chunk of experience, including three with varsity experience since their freshman year, so he will rely on his junior class to lead this team.

The Maroons next broadcast will be next Friday as the Maroons host their annual Clinton Round Robin Tournament.
