Central's 16-11 NEC record last season earned them the third seed
in the NEC Tournament. The Blue Devils return seven of their top
10 hitters from a year ago, when they batted .323 as a team and led
the NEC. The Blue Devils will have to replace several members of
their pitching staff from a year ago when they finished fourth in
the NEC with a 6.67 ERA.
The Blue Devils received two first place votes in the coaches poll,
the same amount as Monmouth, the tournament's defending champion.
Wagner was picked to finish first and garnered four first place
votes. Sacred Heart, picked fourth, also received one first place
