The Mustangs welcome in a new head coach for the 2018-2019 season, Kevin Maguire. Maguire’s daughter, Kenzi, is currently the starting short stop at South Carolina. This power packed roster is comprised of all 2002 and 2003 birth year student-athletes which makes the Mustangs a true second year 16U team. However, Maguire’s team will challenge themselves and will be playing at the 18U level for a majority of its upcoming events.
