An end to a great summer of baseball at RCBC. As the summer comes to an end, we look back on all of our accomplishments and the one accomplishment that continually gets overlooked is our ability to keep our kids focused on baseball, safe from any distractions and keeping busy. It is great to see our kids win baseball games. It is also great to see them grow up, become educated, get through high school and get their college degree. This year represents our 14th year of service to the baseball community. This upcoming fall season, help us search for players and families that share our vision. That vision is to develop student-athletes to the next level.
