St. George, UT: Dixie Flyers Baseball at Media Day

WATCH THE DIXIE FLYERS ABOVE

Dixie Flyers

Coach: Danny Ipson

Players: Logan Leavitt (Jr.), Ridge Erickson (Jr.), Braxton Yates (Jr.)

Last Year...

The Flyers won Region 10 going 11-1 in Region play and 23-6 overall. They went to the state semifinals and lost to Snow Canyon.

This Year...

Coach Ipson: "I think anytime you lose the last game of the season it leaves a bad taste in your mouth, I think that will give us some motivation this year.

"We've got three juniors here with us today. Our junior class is very strong, we have a high number of juniors that will play for us. We look forward to building on what they were able to contribute last year."

Coach Ipson on Logan Leavitt...

"Logan Leavitt was integral for us last year as a DH and a spot infielder. He came up with some huge hits for us especially through the region season so we are excited to have him back."

Coach Ipson on Braxton Yates...

"Braxton is very versatile for us in terms of playing the outfield and first base. We look to see him get a significant amount of time on the mound this year too."

Coach Ipson on Ridge Erickson...

"He started for us last year as a catcher. With one more year of experience I think he can continue to lead our ball club both offensively and defensively."

Throwback...
