After one of the (maybe, THE) best season in school history, Hab Central brings back some core players, and ScoreAtlanta has Habersham among the top-5 teams that could challenge Loganville (reigning State Champs).

PRESEASON INFO

2024 Record: 21-11; State Sweet 16; #6 State Ranking
Head Coach: Chris Akridge (16th Season)
Returning Starters: 4
Key Departures: Konner Burrell, Kade Nicholson, Hayden Gailey, Kaleb Chastain
Key Players: Maverick Chitwood, Kreed Barrett, Hudson Gailey, Spencer Frady (TMU Commit) **Tyler Rothel, Micah Huff, Mason Whitt also noted by ScoreAtlanta as potential star players**
Strengths: “Several guys with a lot of at-bats returning from last season, good bit of experience on defense,” says Akridge.

“Looking to get back to the postseason for the second year in a row and build off of last year’s success,” adds Akridge. “Challenging non-region schedule will hopefully serve to prepare us for a very tough region schedule. Not extremely experienced on the mound but looking to develop experience and depth during non-region play.”
