Plenty of Valley baseball talent

Judging from the Wisconsin Baseball Coaches Association preseason rankings, the targets are out for a few area baseball teams.

For Kimberly (No. 7 in Div. 1), Appleton North (No. 9 in Div. 1), Seymour (No. 1 in Div. 2) and Fox Valley Lutheran (No. 2 in Div. 2), the area has its fair share of quality baseball talent.

And that's not even counting Appleton West who won the conference last year, or Appleton East who returns a bargefull of talent.

If you had the chance to plunk your money down and watch any team this spring it should be FVL. With Jon Gulbransen returning on the mound, he should lead his Foxes through the Valley 8 without a problem.
