LA MIRADA --- The incoming class for the Biola Boys is sizable with 19 talented student-athletes joining the Eagles. 

The group features a wide range experience from graduate and junior transfers and true freshmen additions. The team also added players from across the diamond to help the team after a fifth place finish in the PacWest last season. 

"Our staff put together a strong class that met some immediate needs as well as set us up for future success," said Head Coach Jesse Rodgers. "The class has a good blend of freshmen and transfers that will help us take steps on the field as well as culturally. We are excited to see what they will do this spring."
