Grand Lake Mariners Class of 2027

07/15/2026

What a season. ❤️

We couldn’t be more proud of these boys. Ending the year with a tournament championship was an incredible way to finish, but the championship rings are not what we all will remember most.

We will remember the way they showed up for one another, the laughs in the dugout, the encouragement after mistakes, the celebrations after big moments, and the genuine friendships that were built along the way. This group became so much more than teammates, they became true, genuine friends beyond the field.

Watching them grow together, compete with heart, and create memories they’ll carry with them for years has been such a blessing. Championships are special, but the bond these boys built is what made this season truly unforgettable.

Congratulations, boys. You earned every bit of this ending, and we can’t wait to see where the game and life takes each of you next. ❤️⚾

Congratulations to the Grand Lake Mariners for becoming the 17u Gold Champions in our 2026 Great American World Series!

CHAMPS! 🏆 Grand Lake Mariners 16U Dominate the Best of Ohio – Ohio Valley Invite

What. A. Weekend. 🔥

Our Grand Lake Mariners 16U squad came into Dayton ready to make a statement, and we delivered. With five wins across four days, we not only went undefeated in tournament play, but walked away as champions, improving our season record to 8-1.

Here’s how it went down:

⚾ Game 1: Shutout Statement
We opened strong with an 8-0 win over Next Level Ohio Red. Triplett was on fire, driving in four runs. Schulte-Arnold, and Triplett combined for a huge five-run fourth inning. Tidwell dominated on the mound with five shutout innings and six strikeouts.

⚾ Game 2: Survived and Conquered
In a Friday nail-biter, we edged out Kentucky Platinum 16U 7-6. Early blasts by Tidwell and a 2-run homer by Bassinger set the tone. Triplett closed it out for the save after key RBIs by Hughes and Bassinger. Grit and composure sealed the win.

⚾ Game 3: Bassinger Brings the Heat
Saturday was all about dominance, with Bassinger throwing a 6-inning, 11-strikeout, 1-hit shutout in a 9-0 victory over Indiana Venom. Our bats exploded with 15 hits, led by May and Triplett, each with 3 hits, and 2 RBIs from Schulte-Arnold.

⚾ Game 4: Late-Inning Heroics
Tied 4-4 late against P413 Baseball, Parker stepped up with a clutch 2-RBI single in the sixth to give us a 6-4 win. Houser went six strong innings, allowing zero earned runs. Burden locked it down for the save. Team effort. Big-time poise.

⚾ Game 5: Sealing the Championship
We closed out the weekend with a 6-1 win over T3 Warhawks Mendoza. Bassinger stayed hot with 3 RBIs, and Burden shut things down on the mound with five scoreless innings. Tidwell and Dues added to the offensive punch, each with multiple hits.

⸻

This team is locked in and laser-focused. Every player contributed. Every game showed growth, grit, and heart.

⚓ Record: 8-1
🔥 Tournament Champs
