Extremely proud of these three for signing to play at the next level today. Kyler Barnett at Park University, Alex Khan at Fort Scott Community College, and Mason Chance at Kansas Christian College.
Today is a sad day for our program. Coach Steve Peck lost his battle with cancer last night. Please keep his wife Pam, and their family, in your thoughts and prayers. Steve was a great coach but an even better man and role model for all who came into contact with him.
Dawson Torpey throws the game of the year, Brandon Lindle comes in relief to get the win and Truman Varsity beats Liberty North 2-1 in the bottom of the seventh. Ben Kerby with the game-winning run.

Congratulations to Dawson and Noah for signing today. Dawson will be attending State Fair Community College and Noah will be attending Baker University.
You know you had a good inning when the first base coach looks like this coming off the field. Varsity wins a marathon last night, 15-9, at Raytown, after scoring 6 in the top of the 8th inning. Stone and Locke with home runs, Podhola with the win. 9-10-1 overall, 6-1 in conf.
Congrats to Brady Ruks-Bond and Ben Kerby for signing today with
@AvilaBaseball

There will be an alumni recognition ceremony before our home game with Chrisman on April 1st. The game will be played under our new lights and is a 6:00 start. The ceremony will start around 5:30. I really appreciate the help in spreading the word to other Truman baseball alumni.
Congrats to Kyler Barnett (Utility) and Josh Patrick (Infield) for making first team All-Area. Braeden Schramm also earned Honorable Mention (Utility). Very well deserved honor for 3 great players, who are also great young men.
This senior class has many worthy recipients but Kyler is very deserving of this scholarship. Kyler is a great teammate, a wonderful example of a student-athlete, and has been a joy to coach. Congrats KB.
Congrats to Kyler Barnett. Recipient of the Clyde & Sue Kubli Family Baseball Scholarship at Truman. Coach Kubli was the coach of the 77 State Champion Baseball team. His wife Sue and daughters were staunch supporters.

Great win today at home, against Lee's Summit, on Senior Day. Kyler Barnett with the complete game victory, Josh Patrick with an RBI triple, and Jaden Evans with a sacrifice fly to score the winning run.
One of my favorite Senior Day traditions. A ball inscribed to their parents with a message about their appreciation for the time spent, and sacrifices made, so our guys can play this game.
Two wins, for Varsity, to start the Raytown tournament. We beat Harrisonville, 6-4, and beat Ray South, 14-4. Tomorrow's game is against Summit Christian at 5:00 at Raytown South High School.

My heart is broken for our 13 seniors. Many of you I have known since your days as 7th graders in my first year at Pioneer Ridge, others I have known since elementary school days at baseball camp. This was a group I was really looking forward to coaching because you are all GREAT
Very proud of my guys today, especially Kyler Barnett who threw an excellent game against Staley. We were not able to get a run across in the bottom of the seventh, lost 1-0. Home game tomorrow at Chrysler against Blue Springs South, start time 4:30.
Congrats to one of the hardest working kids I have ever been around. You have earned this wonderful opportunity. We are extremely proud of you and can't wait until the spring!
Good day at the field today as we get 2 wins, N. Dawson was the winning pitcher in game 1 with S. Grotenhuis coming up with the big hit, a grand slam for his first Varsity homerun. C. Kraus was the winning pitcher in game two, Dawson and Brady Ruks-Bond each had big hits.
Great win on the road at Park Hill South, 7-6. Kyler Barnett with another stellar complete game, Alex Khan with a BOMB in the top of 7th and a game ending double from Menzies to Servi to Khan. Look to follow it up on Friday at home against Liberty North.

Congrats to Stuart Grotenhuis for his first win as a Varsity pitcher. Brady Ruks-Bond with a home run in the 8-2 win against Raytown. A busy week next week starts with a game at St. Joe on Monday.
We are 30 minutes away from what would have been the first game of the season. I really wish this was a post of our opening day lineup...I sure miss baseball.
A beautiful day for baseball. First game will be against Lee Summit West second game against Grain Valley. Today’s games are being played at Crane Stadium in Warrensburg, thanks to
@Mules_Baseball
for allowing us to use their facility.
Thanks again for coming out to take such great pictures. Each of these says so much about our guys, love their enthusiasm and excited about the rest of the spring.
Today's Patriot win over rival Chrisman had everything! Late-inning clutch hitting, nightmarish relief pitching, barn-door sized strike zones and bitter cold. Congrats to the Pats on the 5-4 win.

@THSPatriots
Solid day at the park to start the season. Torpey with the win in game 2 against St. Michael’s by a score of 5-1. Raytown tournament starts on Monday with Raytown South at 5:00 and Harrisonville at 7:00, both games at Ray South.
Tonight was a good night at home with a win for Varsity, 7-6 against Kearney while C team defeated Rockhurst 4-3. Great effort all night, Varsity is now 5-1 and C team is 1-1.
Varsity gets beat by a very talented Blue Springs South team. We played very well all day, including a great pitching effort from Blankenship and Lindle. We open up the conference season, at home, on Friday against Belton.
Braeden Schramm with the bases-loaded single in the bottom of the ninth to beat Park Hill South 5 to 4. Alex Khan, Cam Lusso, Kyler Barnett all contributed with solid pitching. Barnett gets the win and has four hits on the day.
It is hard to explain the excitement I felt when I saw
@RodBriggs3
tweet a pic of the new side goals at Truman, because all I could see was a new batting cage! I can’t wait to put it to use.

@DrDaleHerl
Varsity wins a marathon against Chrisman 10-9. Chrisman scored five in the bottom of the 7th to send the game to extra innings. Brady Ruks-Bond had the base hit to score Anthony Locke with the go ahead run in the top of the 8th. Nich Dawson got the win in relief.
Brandon Lindle throws a gem and no hits Raytown South in game one. Sam Scott with a very gutsy performance on the mound in game 2. Caleb Lockwood with two innings of relief. Game one score 10 to 1 and game two score 10 to 3.
The 2019 baseball season comes to a close with the 7-0 loss to Blue Springs. Thanks to the players, coaches, managers, and families for making this season one to enjoy. Although it was not the result we were looking for, I will always cherish coaching this team.
Very excited to see the progress on our baseball field. Adding the new top layer to the field. Can’t wait to see how differently it plays in the spring.
Varsity comes from behind to win 7-4 at St. Joe Central, Ben Kerby with the game winning, 2-run, homerun in the top of the 7th. Copper with the win in relief, 14-9 overall 4-2 in conference.
Happy Thanksgiving to all players, and their families, from the past and present. I am thankful for all of you and wish you health and happiness during this holiday season.
The impromptu wiffleball game, after our team dinner, tonight was a great reminder of how these guys still are kids at heart. Thanks to the Torpey family for hosting. Districts will be tomorrow night at 7:00, at Belton, vs. Rockhurst.
Exciting game to start the season. Bingham with the walk-off single, in the bottom of the 9th, to win 8-7 against Lincoln Prep. Next game against St. Michael’s will start around 3:30.
DEVELOPMENTAL⚾️, Kyler Barnett delivers the game winning single for the walk-off win in bottom of the 7th! Pirates defeat Hibbing Community College in game two, 3-2.
Today was a great day at the park. Varsity and JV both beat Ruskin 15-0 after Varsity drops the first game 12-3 to Ray-Pec. Congrats to Manfredi, Jacobson, and Reinhardt who all hit their first high school home runs.
The official scorer has made the announcement that the error on the 1st baseman has been reviewed and officially changed to a hit for Dawson Torpey. Congrats on your first Varsity hit along with first Varsity save.
Varsity taking a few minutes to collect our thoughts as we finish up a good practice in preparation for our season opening double header on Saturday. Games at 10 and 12, at Hidden Valley, vs. St. Michael’s.
