Believe it or not, there are five baseball teams at Ralston Valley: varsity, JV, level 3, freshmen A and freshmen B. So many young men want to play baseball at RVHS because Mustang baseball program is a source of pride for the school and an example of success, especially after last year’s state title. But this season, the level 3 (sophomore) team, exceeded all expectations. They went undefeated for the entire season with a record of 12-0. And in the final playoff tournament, they won second place. This team is the first Ralston Valley baseball team to ever have a perfect winning season. Congratulations to Coach Brian Deeds and all the awesome players!
