Welcome to the #AWREFam @CUCbaseball!!
The Cougars have DOMINATED the NACC, winning it all from the years 2013 THROUGH 2019.
After an incredible 2025 featuring a 26-16 record, the Cougars are returning their All-Region DH @jakemahler25, and nearly their entire pitching staff.
The return to the top is on the horizon, and now with our bag of tricks and tools (including custom heat maps, individualized hitting metrics, and multi-angle footage) the Cougars have never looked better.

From opening weekend to today, every moment has prepared us for the next. Playing for the guys next to us and fighting to keep going.
We prove ourselves game after game and weโre ready to prove it again.

The sweeper isn't a new pitch.
Pitchers have been throwing it for a long time.
But here's how it differs metrically from other breaking balls.

Machine guys, stand up bp guys. Measure the angle of the ball at home plate to make sure itโs realistic to their age. Training flat when they see steep is as bad as training steep for flat.

The Mahler Brothers are ranked fifth in the nation for home runs this year and have moved up to third in the Cougar Record Book for single-season home runs with plenty of season to go.

๐จ Marinersโ Pickoff Play
โข 1st baseman dekes back to the base then resets his position.
โข As the runner retakes his lead, the catcher drops his glove & the pitcher picks.
โญ๏ธ Very creative play to catch overly aggressive baserunners.

โI believe in you, but you gotta want this moment.โ
True coaching isn't always quiet. Itโs about meeting an athleteโs intensity with your own, demanding excellence because you care about their growth more than their comfort in the moment.
Thatโs the work.
