Season Outlook:
Coach Bastress will look to NCAA Qualifier and 2015 Mideast Regional Champion Ryan Flynn to lead a young but experienced group heading into the 2015-16 season. The expectations are simple for this group and that is to bring home some hardware at the NCAA Championships in March. The Spartans coaching staff will also look upon a solid recruiting class that includes state qualifiers and place winners to help push returners and look for starting roles.
