Saints offense picking up the slack
With pitchers ailing, weight falls on shoulders of Saints’ potent bats

Coming off a 25-27 record in 2007, the Flagler Saints baseball team is primed to improve on a season they believe was not near good enough.
“We were pretty disappointed with last year’s season, a sub-.500 season,” junior pitcher Austin Donmoyer said. “We realize coming into this season that the competition is just going to get harder and harder.”
The Saints are off to a 3-6 start to the 2008 season and have relied heavily on their offense. Leading that offense has been senior first baseman Kenny Ray.
His .359 average is second on the team, and his seven runs scored and seven runs batted in are team highs. Ray is also 4-5 in stolen base attempts.
