LBCC Men's Baseball Prepares for The Season

As the upcoming baseball season gets closer and closer, the LBCC baseball team looks to accomplish big things.

Coming off a strong season last year, second-year head coach and manager Ryan Gipson looks to lead his baseball club to a league title and an appearance in the playoffs. 


“We have a lot of guys on this team that are willing to push each other and compete, whether it’s on the field, in the weight room, or in the classroom” said Gipson. The Roadrunners have some shoes to fill from last season, but Gipson feels strong about what he is seeing out of his freshman players. “We have some guys that have worked really hard in the fall that have a good chance at earning a spot in the lineup” said Gipson. 


Incoming freshmen Spencer Desbiens, Logan Hatley, and David Wallum are some of the names to keep watch for as the season approaches. “The sophomores set good examples, the leadership is great, which is why we have such good team chemistry” says outfielder Desbiens. “The coaching staff is great, I really like coach Gip, he’s done a great job so far turning around a brand new program and he really cares for all of us individually” said returning red shirt freshman Caleb Smith. 


The young Roadrunners look to make an impact on the the upcoming season, and want nothing more than to start off strong. "We need to compete on every pitch, our goal as a club is to win every series and make the playoffs" says Gipson. With the season just around the corner, Linn-Benton baseball looks to be in full-swing with high hopes and expectations on the upcoming year.
