AVON GROVE
Last year: 20-4, National Division Champs, State qualifier Coach: Mike DeLuzio, 1st year Key players: Maggie Balint (Sr., P), Rachel Butler (So, IF) Alli Wallauer (So, OF) Outlook: As long as all-world pitcher Maggie Balint is in the circle, the Red Devils are going to be in games. It will be interesting to watch how Balint adjusts to life without catcher Alyssa Herion, now at West Chester University, as well as how the Devils adapt to a new head coach. But even with a freshman and seven sophomores behind Balint, Avon Grove is still among the favorites to win its third straight National division crown and to make a deep post season run.
