Blue Mountain Community College Head Baseball Coach Brad Baker has had a busy off-season. After a successful 2018 season that saw the Timberwolves pick up 20 wins, Baker hasn’t slowed down the momentum, and has signed seven players in the early signing period for the 2019-2020 season.
“I’m excited about the seven guys that we have signed to this point already,” Baker said. “This class, added to our extremely strong freshman class, should be a great mix for the 2020 season. These student-athletes have proven themselves at the high school level to excel on the baseball field and in the classroom and I’m excited to see how they excel at the collegiate level in both areas. We still have a few spots to add to finish up the 2019 class, but we are close to finished.”
