On the pitching side, the Growlers retain <\/span><b>Brenden Burch <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(Aquinas) and <\/span><b>Graham<\/b> <b>Kollen <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(Huntington).<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Players to Watch<\/b><b>&nbsp;<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Valparaiso redshirt-freshman <\/span><b>Case Sullivan <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">began the collegiate season on a heater, hitting<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.355 in his first 31 at-bats.
