🔥 Welcome to the Mad Apple coaching staff, Xavier Croxton! 🔥

We’re excited to announce Xavier Croxton as our new Hitting Coach.

A Fort Wayne native and 2019 South Side High School graduate, Xavier was a five-year starter at the University of Saint Francis before continuing his career professionally. He has spent the last two seasons playing professional baseball, most recently with the Boise Hawks of the Pioneer League.

Xavier brings a player-first philosophy to hitting instruction.

"Every hitter moves differently, learns differently, and requires a different approach to reach their potential."

His approach goes far beyond swing mechanics. Xavier emphasizes preparation, pitch recognition, in-game adjustments, and helping hitters develop the confidence to step into every at-bat with a plan.

We're excited for our athletes to learn from someone who has competed at the highest levels while staying committed to giving back to the Fort Wayne baseball and softball community.

Please join us in welcoming Coach Xavier Croxton to the Mad Apple family! 🍎🥎
