Packed house yesterday for the introduction of our athletes. You guys were awesome! You also crushed all 2,000 hotdogs in one hour. .
It is time to welcome back the AC Athletics program with a big hoorah! The campus held its first pep rally after more than 30 years without team sports, and we had a blast!

Extremely sadden by my friend @Coach_JT04’s death. He was a fun guy to be around and people always gravitated to him to talk all things baseball. JT literally helped 100s of high school players play college baseball. In addition he helped his own JuCo bandits get countless 4 year.

Great start this fall. More commitments coming soon!.
The AC baseball team's pipeline to 4-year programs is in full effect this fall. Six Badgers have announced their commitments to universities since the start of fall ball. And plenty of sophomore talent remains on the board, including 5 all-conference honorees from a season ago.

I can’t believe I’m going to watch SNL to see if a car maker endorses a fake currency with a dog on it while I stare at my phone so I can see if it goes up to .85 so I can buy a new hack attack.

Benny rewrites the AC record book!. Chris Benavidez recorded the first 3 home run game in team history today and hit the Badgers 1st grand slam of the season. The outfielder from Bryan, TX now has 9 home runs on the year and is hitting over a .400 average in the leadoff role.

Top 5 hitters statistically in ALL regions of Texas Junior College baseball. Congrats Brooks!.
History made. @Brooks_Carter9 set AC's single season batting average record (.424) this spring in his 1st year at AC. The mark ranked 5th in Region V (at least 100 AB). Carter's 74 hits, 65 RBIs are the second-highest totals in program history. The lefty added 10 HR in 2025.
