Our lone D1 was Americas team for a bit on the national level

Our lone D2 has taken a massive leap over the past couple years

We have the WIAC (among other great teams)

It’s called Birdball, and it’s here to stay. #iron #BurnTheBoats🦉

[Brandon Nelson @CoachNellie25]

Proud is an understatement.

Graduated 13 from 2025, including NSC POTY and 7 All-Conference guys

15 players made Varsity debuts this year. Battled key injuries throughout the season and all this group did was:

• Win Conference
• Win 2nd most games in Spring Ball Era

Last night didn’t go the way we wanted. Our season ends in the 1st round of WIAA playoffs.

Hats off to @MenashaBaseball as they earned it, and good luck the rest of the way!

While the ending sucks, it does not take away from how hard this group battled all year.

[Slinger High School Baseball @SlingerBaseball]

Second season starts now.

Got an amazing group of Seniors to celebrate! Come on out to The Nest to watch this awesome group compete in their final regular season home game as Owls! #iron #BurnTheBoats🦉

The Owls would take the lead scoring on an error, OF Greg Mechenich (Slinger, 2027) extends the lead on a two-RBI single to left field.

Slinger leads 9-6 heading to the seventh.

[Prep Baseball Wisconsin @PrepBaseballWI]

Chvosta comes up big for the Owls again in the sixth driving in the tying run on a RBI single through the infield.

One of the top performers for the Owls this spring, on the barrel throughout his ABs.

Game is tied at 6 with Slinger still batting in the sixth.
