BASES LOADED: No. 19 Stratford looks to rally this Spring

No. 19 -- Stratford Spartans

2023: 23-9 (Finished 2nd in District 17-6A/Bi-District Finalist)

Shortly after taking silver in the district, the Spartans experienced a gut-wrenching loss in an extra-innings matchup against Lamar during the Bi-District round.

Given their early exit from the playoffs a year ago, this Spring should be when Stratford turns things around.

Coach Spencer Richards enters his second year with the program after earning the 17-6A Coaching Staff of the Year award and will have the tools necessary to flip the script.

Texas State-commit Caden Baker will headline the lineup from the outfield spot, while second-teamers Thomas Cloud and Braxton Wakefield return to the fold as well.
