*All statements below are by Coach Eric Stachler:

 

"Shaun Coffman could be an impact player this year for the Parkway Panthers.  He will be doing a lot pitching this season". 

"The overall outlook for the 2008 Parkway Panthers is that we are a very experienced team with a lot of returning lettermen and the time is now.  We are very deep with pitching this season and the pitching staff will carry us and keep us in every ball game.  Jensen Painter will be our number one and we have 3 or 4 guys fighting to see who will be the number 2-5 starters.  The ones that don’t start will come in relief.  With the experience team that we have, we are looking to put a lot of runs on the board. We have some very good hitters and will be solid throughout the line up and will need some guys to step up to fill in a couple of spots.  The M.A.C. will be loaded this season and I look for Parkway to contend for the top spot in the league and to have that carry over into the post season as this team could be a special team that could go far into the post season tournament".
