Here's why we play here...
During the fall of 2005, we asked our players to name their top reasons for being baseball student-athletes at Alderson-Broaddus College. Our first year theme, "Why Not Now," is not only our vision for becoming the most improved NCAA Division II baseball team in the nation in 2006, but also the philosophy our young men share in their pursuit of becoming academic trendsetters on campus. The Battlers' goal is to CHASE PERFECTION, on and off the field!
Top Reasons
