    Everything is so different this year at Tate for baseball. The boys have so much more energy. The leadership has respect for the boys and the boys have respect for the leadership. If you haven’t had a chance to come watch the Aggies in action this year – look at the schools website for the baseball schedule. The Varsitys only loss for the year was in overtime in the bottom of the 8th (2-3) in the Aggie Classic – otherwise this group has been on an awesome winning streak. Thanks to all the parents for their wonderful , unending work and devotion this year and a BIG thank you to Coach Blackmon and his coaching staff. Great things are going on a Tate. Come see:)
