Thanks. I see tweets from time to time but haven't really put recruits all together. There seems to be a severe lack of interest in baseball on this message board (no condemnation just reality) so for the most part I've quit following. I love sports and especially ACU sports and hope this program can thrive.

Brett Hammit - 6'3" 205 lbs (SS) is transferring to ACU from JUCO powerhouse Jefferson College after spending one year at the Univ of Nebraska. Brett grew up in Nixa, MO, a suburb of my old stompin' grounds, Springfield. One of of my close friend's son grew up with Brett and played baseball against him through high school. He said he's a "really good ball player and will be a great addition to ACU." Was ranked as the #1 SS in Missouri coming out of high school. Big get for Coach McCarty.

Thanks, Nashville. Coach McCarty is building something special, I think.

Nixa has had a great athletics program for a while. When I lived north of Springfield for a few years, I'd do some freelance for the Springfield paper and got to go there for a few games to cover high school sports. |

I love sports and especially ACU sports and hope this program can thrive. Baseball is my favorite sport actually. My father played in the minors and I played a lot growing up. Scholarships were very few for freshmen in those days so baseball was not too big at ACU in the sixties. Even UT Austin (that would be Bibb Falk) would not offer scholarships to freshmen baseball players because the NCAA ruled you could not play varsity until your sophomore year -- then you get the scholarship. My theory about Baseball is that it sort of requires a deeper level of understanding and involvement to be appreciated -- poorly worded but there is something about baseball that is different. Some find it boring when others are deeply absorbed by it. Anyway, personally, I love baseball. Runner on second, up one run, bottom of the ninth, two outs, and the batter steps into the box -- that is exciting if you are on the mound shaking off the catcher's calls. N.B: Gary McCaleb played for the Cats back then. |

Trying to pin down our baseball recruits for 2021. I've seen a couple of tweets from ACU baseball but the recruits have been unnamed but on the baseball page I see commitments from Parker Mathews, Justin Martinez and Holden Rook. Also, Brandon Lees appears to be a target from Northern Oklahoma-Enid and Washington State. Anyone have more up to date info. Anyone know what happened to the two recruits from Bullard High that East Texas Wildcat mentioned in his previous post here?

They are signed and committed. |

They both look like good prospects (Jewell and Carson). It will be interesting to see who plays on either side of Randall next year (Hill, Hammitt, Cazarin, and Nielsen return). Like football and basketball, we are building a really deep team. Competition for starting jobs should be intense.
