Momentum Building This Spring
Dear Blue Devil Family, Alumni, and Friends,
We wanted to take a moment to reconnect and share an update on KCKCC Baseball.
The Blue Devils are currently 21–11 and starting to show what they're capable of. Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen growth in competitiveness, toughness, and responsiveness — the traits that have defined our program at its best.
More importantly, this team is beginning to play with consistency, energy, and intent — and that’s where real progress happens.

Remembering Barry Davies
On a difficult note, the Blue Devil Baseball family recently lost Barry Davies, who had a meaningful impact on many connected to our program and the local baseball community.
His influence will not be forgotten, and we will honor his impact in a meaningful way this season.
Building the Future of KCKCC Baseball
As we continue to move the program forward, we have begun early conversations around two important initiatives:
• Batting Cage Facility Project
Improving our ability to train and develop players year-round
• Blue Devil Impact Scholarship Fund
Helping bridge the scholarship gap and expand opportunities for our student-athletes
We are currently looking to reconnect with a small group of alumni and supporters who may be interested in participating in an initial brainstorming meeting to help guide these efforts.
This is not a fundraising ask — simply an opportunity to reconnect, share ideas, and help shape the program's future.
