Logan Renken of Little River was one of the most dominating players last season in Class 1A. On offense, he hit .633 with 33 hits, while striking out 48 batters with a 1.71 ERA on the mound.
“I have gotten a lot faster and stronger this off-season and hope to put that to use to help my team score runs,” Renken said. “I put a lot of focus into my strength training and nutrition this fall. An area I am looking to improve upon this season would be my baserunning and power.”
The Redskins will have a very young team this spring, but that has not stopped Renken from having big plans for his team come May.
“I am most excited to see how we can rebuild and learn to compete as a young team after graduating a lot of guys last season,” Renken said. “As a team we plan on going out and competing every day to get better and by the end of the season hopefully give ourselves a chance to compete in Great Bend.”
It is pretty simple for Renken: if he can improve his game, the Redskins will improve, too.
“My biggest goal this season is to better the guys around me along with finding the weak spots in my game to improve upon for the future,” Renken said.
