It’s opening day for the Greenville High School baseball team as they travel to East Alton (Wood River) to begin their 2023 campaign.

Veteran coach Todd Hutchinson has a mix of experience and youth battling for spots in this year’s lineup.

“We’ve had a good first couple of weeks of practice,” said Hutchinson. “We’ve gotten some good senior leadership and we have a lot of kids battling for spots at the vast majority of positions,” said Hutchinson. “Regardless of their role on the team, whether they are coaches or players, we have to work hard every day. We’ve been successful for several years by emphasizing hard work and toughness.” For more information see the March 14, 2023 edition of The Greenville Advocate.
