They took two of three games from Roseburg and Eagle Point, and capped the season by finally beating South Medford, thanks largely to a stalwart complete-game pitching performance by Rick Joerger. The freshmen team also featured quality pitching, including complete game shut outs by Dylan Pearce. They finished 14-4, sweeping North Medford and Grants Pass while also taking two of three from Roseburg.
