Former Saints Invited to Weekend of Nostalgia

KSCB News - July 19, 2010 12:00 am

It’s time to dust off those old cleats and squeeze into the pinstripes

for the Inaugural Saints Baseball Alumni Weekend. That’s right, SCCC/ATS is

inviting all Seward County Saints Baseball alumni and their families

back to Liberal on Labor Day Weekend (September 3-5) to relive the glory

days at Brent Gould Field. The weekend will consist of a new facilities

tour, a home run derby, a game against the current Saints, a dinner and

social after the game, as well as a golf tournament on Sunday morning.

Under current Head Coach, Galen McSpadden, the Seward County Community

College baseball program has amassed a record of 986-546 over the past

29 years, which has included: 1 NJCAA World Series appearance; 5

regional tournament championships; 13 regular season conference

championships; 18 All-Americans and 144 All-Conference players. The

sustained success of Saints baseball has been a direct result of both

the quality of players that have performed on Brent Gould Field as well

as the quality of men that have continued their lives after Seward

County. Winning has become a tradition for the Saints, and Seward

County Community College would like to invite all of those who have been

a part of it back to Liberal, Kansas (this Labor Day weekend) for the

Inaugural SCCC Baseball Alumni Weekend.
