Season Preview: Shawnee Heights

Season Preview: St. James
"Improving Every Day and Finishing Every Play" Such was the motto in 2023, but after just the second season below .500 in 13 seasons under Tom Radke, the mantra can be reused in 2024 in a rebuilding campaign. St. James has the numbers for a deep, successful squad this season, with over 160 total players on the roster. There isn’t just quantity to this roster, though, but quality as well, with plenty of returning talent that is sure to help the Thunder make a playoff run toward the EKL title.
