For the first time in 10 years, the Simpson Red Hawks will advance to a conference tourney! It’s the first time since being in the Cal Pac. In a year filled with adversity and uncertainty, these guys never stopped battling. So proud to be a part of it.

Thoughts and prayers to one of our own, Mike Driscoll, who is having cardiac ablation surgery today to correct a heart arrhythmia. Not many stronger than Mike!
So proud of these guys! From starting 2-10 to winning 11 conference games in a row and making the semifinals in the

tourney. Deepest playoff run in Simpson baseball history. Paving the way for future Red Hawks.💪🏼

2019 Opening Day Series:
3-1 start, best start in Simpson baseball history. Better get used to saying “best __________ in Simpson baseball history” with this crew.

A huge THANK YOU to Beyond Welding and Metal Fabrication for helping us with our batting cage poles! Net and wire to follow. The 4 tunnel cage will be ready for the fall!
Just a reminder that “student-athlete” starts with “student”. No matter the weekend outcome, players have to find the 30-45 min waiting for a bus to finish those midterms. Embrace the grind!

Today would’ve been Senior Day for 12 men who will leave a lasting legacy on our program. Thank you for helping define what we want a Red Hawk to be!

Wanna hit velo in a game? Practice it. Those 3 foul ball swings gave Mookie 10x the feedback than 3 feel-good, 40 mph BP hacks. I wonder if Mookie complained about not enough swings? Or he finds ways to get better in every swing?🤔
Simpson Baseball racks up annual school awards!

Congrats to one of our best ever, Nathan Minami. Graduating tonight with his BS in Nursing. “Nurse Nate” is the true definition of a student-athlete. Collected yet another award: “Nursing Core Value Award in Community”👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

True teammates are truly excited for their brothers! I love watching baseline weight room testing to see new recruits strength and how hard returners worked over the summer.

Pitcher HORSE...a new favorite pitcher competition. Every pitch matters, learn to control stress and heartbeat, immediate feedback. This is how you do it!

It been a rough road trip so far, but today’s win followed by a team outing to Blair Field to watch Long Beach State makes it all worth it.

I’m understanding lots of people ready to move on from 2020, but so many things to be grateful for:

2. Time to work on our on-campus facilities. 3. Lots of time spent exercising outdoors.

Today, saw local 2019 Red Hawk commit, Jake Alexander, come into the gym alone and get after it. He didnt know I was there. I already know this frosh is planning to make a big impact! What do you do when no one is watching?👀
Jake Alexander on the mound for Team Conrad. 3-3 score in bottom of 4. 3 run homer by Vic Tiscareno tied it up for Team Kessel.
Great to see alumni and staff make it out to the game!
