The winter is finally fading, and that can only mean one thing… Its time for Davis High Baseball! Last year, the Darts finished with a 20-8 overall record and a Region 1 Title. Their season came to an end after a loss to Riverton in three extra innings. The 2018 season was full of success and the Darts look to build on that in 2019.

The Darts will be without ball-blasters Zach Mansfield and Zach Hoskins who combined for 10 home runs last season, but they will be returning a talented majority of their players as well as adding some new talent to the squad. This years team is proud of the depth they have with several talented players who can step in at any time and contribute.

The Darts are returning the majority of their coaching staff from last season, led by theĀ 2018 Standard-Examiner Coach of the Year, Josh Godfrey, who was hired as the Head Coach in 2017.

In an interview with Stockton Hall, he mentioned the teams’ desire to win the Region title for the fourth year in a row as well as their hopes for the state championship. It will be a very exciting team to watch as they begin their season against Woods Cross this Thursday.
