Eagles take game one against
#8
Middle Georgia 12-5. Evan Gillespie earns the win with 6.0 IP and 9 K’s. Moving him to 7-0 with a .96 ERA on the year. Tomorrow’s double header will start at 1 pm.
Mark Courson, a longtime supporter of Faulkner Baseball, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly yesterday. We send our deepest condolences to his son & former Faulkner player, Tyler, as well as his other children and family members. To the Courson family - you are much loved.
With 13 strikeouts Friday night against Lewis and Clark State, Antonio Frias moved his season total to 132 and claimed the single season program record for Ks previously set by Thomas Dorminy (131) in 2014.
Just finished a crazy Game 2 at Blue Mountain. After 5 innings last night, the game was suspended and we were losing 8-4. Picking up where we left at 10am, the guys tied it up in the 9th and pulled out the win in the 11th. Game 3 should be up on DakStats.

For the 10th consecutive year, Faulkner Baseball has had one or more players sign a professional baseball contract. We are extremely proud of Evan Gillespie and we are excited for him and his wonderful family! Go live your dreams!

We lost longtime Faulkner fan today, Rita Barnes, the beloved grandmother of former Eagle TJ Condon. She came to games wheeling her oxygen tank & offering hugs & encouragement. Ms.Rita was fun, feisty & faithful to the end. We extend our love & sympathy to TJ, Karen & her family.
Harrison Field is getting a little make over! Coach Mac, Correa & Tuck are standing where the new entrance is being built. It will be smaller version of Faulkner’s main front entrance. Check back here for updates!
We won both scrimmage games today. We open up regular season play this coming Friday at 3pm. We will face the
#2
team in the nation and we need every bit of support we can get!
Here is a list of all our 2020 Seniors. Some of these guys are staying & using their bonus year of eligibility and some are moving on. We are very grateful to every one of them and all their families!

The guys won game two against Chipola, splitting the scrimmage series today. We will scrimmage AUM next Saturday, the 26th. Opening Weekend is two weeks from tonight.
Second night in a row not getting home from work until 1:45 a.m. but it’s hard not to love every second of it when my office has been a baseball field. I love my job and my alma mater!
