Despite it being he and his coaching staff’s first season at Valley Center, Randy Mutt is excited about the kind of team the Hornets are field game in and game out.
“We have high expectations for this year’s team,” Mutt said. “We have many athletes who are ready to compete and win games. Our new coaching staff is dedicated to putting our athletes in the best position for success this year.”
At every level and every grade, Mutt is confident that he will have players that are ready to compete at a high level.
“We have a large senior class this year, as well as talented junior and sophomore players who will contribute to our success,” Mutt said. “Every player in this year’s squad is considered a key player for our program. We are definitely building something special here at Valley Center High School.”
Mutt and his staff have laid out a plan for not just this season, but for the direction of the program going forward.
“The goals players have set for our program include achieving a winning season record, becoming one of the top teams in our league, winning a regional title, making a run in the state tournament, and ultimately winning the championship,” Mutt said.
Being a baseball player at Valley Center is not just about what happens on the field, but also representing the school and community as well.
“We want to use baseball as a tool to teach valuable life lessons,” Mutt said. “We are committed to our student-athletes here at Valley Center, and our coaching staff is ready to make a significant IMPACT in our baseball program. Our goal is to change one life at a time.”
