2017 OUTLOOK
"The Tri-Rivers Conference is THE toughest small school conference in the state of Iowa.  Teams like North Linn, Lisbon, Alburnett and Maquoketa Valley make for a tough regular season but I feel it makes us battle tested for the post season.  We will not fear anyone that we will play.  We have a mix of skilled young players with some experienced guys.  We will start the year with a good number of kids and we will compete hard.  Our record does not reflect the effort and pride our kids have put into this baseball program." Head Coach Jake Van Scoyoc
