While we are still focused on the remainder of our spring/summer season we are excited to announce our tryout date for our team next year.

If you know anyone that loves the game, wants to focus on their development, and be a part of a winning culture that focuses on respect for ourselves, the team, and the game then send them our way.

We will see you in Forsyth!

This past weekend was possibly the hardest decision for the coaching staff on who earned the awards due how well the boys did. We had multiple deserving on offense and for defense we had outfielders throwing runners out with infielders ranging into foul territory and making outstanding catches.

⚾️ Henry locked down the outfield no matter where we put him making multiple catches, limiting baserunners progress and throwing a runner out. He did his job and earned himself the Defensive MVP.

⚾️ Beau handled his business at the plate going 9 for 11, with 3 RBI’s, and scoring 3 runs. He also had a diving catch on the infield to highlight his solid defensive performance. This earned him the Offensive MVP.

Tough game this morning resulting in our 10th lose on the year. The boys played outstanding to start the game, but one inning is all it took.

It was a fun weekend watching the boys use wooden bats.

The boys had an 11 game winning streak and are currently sitting 14 games above 500 on the spring season.

Nothing better than Bracket Day! Hard road ahead of us, but 1 inning at a time and good things can happen.
