With fall sports for the Agua Fria Owls ending, it’s time for winter sports to come back, but even though it’s time for the winter sports it doesn’t mean spring programs can’t get ready for their upcoming season. Agua Frias baseball team is practicing and getting ready for their upcoming season with their offseason training. With the team practicing getting ready for the season, they are hoping for a good season with lots of wins to show for it.

The team has been working hard in the weight room to get stronger and faster to accomplish the goals they want for this upcoming spring season. The team is hoping to get more students recruited to play for the team this season. The team wants to see more support and players on the team,” We need more players to be out there and commit to baseball” is what coach Jaime Alejos had to say when asked about the future of the baseball team. With hopes of getting more people to come out and play they hope that they can have a good season. Right now they end for the fall season but are looking forward to the winter preseason that kicks up in January and goes from Monday through Friday weekly. They are hoping to see more Owls out there participating in trying to make the baseball team better and more fun.

The team last season wasn’t all too great with a record of 3-15, the team hopes to see a drastic change with those numbers increasing by a lot with many more wins for the program. To get the wins they are talking about they need to work hard for what they want knowing that it won’t be handed to them. A lot of the players who have been consistently showing up to practice have seen a difference in culture and a difference in themselves as a player. “It’s been going great… I believe it will” is what junior Gabriel Ramirez said after being asked how practices have been and if they are beneficial. The team also wants more support from students to come out and cheer them on starting in February, they begin their season on February 21st here at Agua Fria against West Point and Centennial High School in the Wayne DeCombs preseason invitational tournament, hopefully, this preseason tournament will get the team prepared and ready for what they want to be a successful season.
