BASES LOADED: No. 7 La Porte returns to contend for another playoff run
No. 7 -- La Porte Bulldogs
2023: 27-9-1 (Finished 2nd in District 18-5A/Regional Semifinalist)
La Porte advanced four rounds deep into the playoffs last Spring, which should leave fans optimistic for the ensuing season.
While there might be a few spaces to be filled, after numerous key pieces graduated over the Summer, the Bulldogs should still be a contender under the direction of coach Ricky Torres.
The stars that are returning include first-team, all-district selection Landon Kay, Newcomer of the Year Kylin Manning and Caleb Hill. Julian Jaramillo will provide power in the lineup.
As this young team progresses, they should become unmistakable contenders for the postseason.
