The honors keep coming for West Salem's senior ace, Lucas Stanfield.  Having already been named 1st Team All-League and League Pitcher of the Year Lucas received some more great news.  Stanfield was named 1st Team All-State at pitcher and also named to the 2019 Oregon All-Star Series.

Some of you may remember that the Oregon All-Star Series used to be called the State-Metro game and was played in a slightly different format.  The Series is a collection of the best Oregon seniors from the 5A and 6A levels.  Lucas will play for the South Team in a two game series against the North Team.  Over the years West has been well represented in the Series, most recently by Blake Arritola in 2018.  The All-Star Series will take place June 22nd and 23rd at Oregon State's Goss Stadium.

You can find more info about the Series here: Oregon All-Star Series

Congrats to Lucas on an amazing season and the well-deserved accolades!

At the end of the season coaches from each team in the league vote on the conference's top performers.  This year we had several Titans take home All-League honors:

• Lucas Stanfield was named MVC Pitcher of the Year
• Stanfield (pitcher) and Noah Juarez (infield) were named 1st Team All-League
• Kyle Mitsuyasu (catcher), Tanner Keene (infield), Wilson Neitzel (outfield), and Crosby Albee (utility) were named 2nd Team All-League
• Braden Allison was named Honorable Mention All-League

​Congrats to all of our award winners!

AAA tryouts will be June 3rd and 4th at Western Oregon University from 5 pm to 7 pm.  We encourage all of our varsity players to tryout for this team.  If you have a question about whether you should try out talk to Coach Blair.

Division 1 and Division 2 tryouts will be May 30th and 31st at West Salem High School from 5:30 pm to 7 pm.  We encourage any players who plan on playing in our program next school season to tryout.  This includes current 8th graders though current 11th graders. 

• Current 8th graders: please keep in mind that IF you make either D2 or D1 your youth team (JBO, little league, etc.) is your first priority.  We will not ask or expect you to miss games involving your youth team.
• Football/Basketball/Wrestling players: please communicate any scheduling conflicts with Coach Blair.  Each summer, the baseball program works hard to make sure our players can compete in as many sports as possible, as we believe in the importance of multi-sport participation.
• Cuts: There are typically cuts made during summer tryouts.  If you do not make a team this summer, that does NOT have any bearing on next year's school season.  We only have two teams in the summer (versus three in the spring) and have limited roster space.  We encourage any player who does not make a team to work hard over the summer and come back for school ball tryouts in the spring.

We hope to see all of next year's Titan Baseball players out for summer ball.  It is a fun experience where tons of growth and improvement as an individual and program occur.  Go Titans!
