Coming into the season, Navy baseball coach Paul Kostacopoulos knew he had a solid core of returning position players from the 2016 team that set a school record for wins, including one in the NCAA Tournament.

When the Mids begin their Patriot League semifinal series against Bucknell today, Biggers, Williamson and Lowery each will carry significant roles for the Mids.
