I’m so proud of Brandon and his teammates. The last chapter at East Lincoln has come to a close for us. I’m so grateful for @ELCoachMatile@Coach_Skellie and all of the coaching staff, announcers, field crew and definitely our “village” that were part of our journey! 🥰

Brandon shined at the Top Prospect Games in August, showcasing his true utility capabilities and high-level ability to spin the baseball on the mound. He'll be a key multi-position contributor for the Eagles.
Congrats!

Congratulations to 2026 INF @bwash2026 of @athleticselhs, the POPPY HAND-CRAFTED POPCORN Player of the Week for the Week of March 24-29
Brandon was a force in East Lincoln's 3-0 run last week, which included 2 W's vs Conference foe Foard & a revived Rivalry Game W vs West Lincoln
In their first match-up since 2018, East Lincoln won in extra innings, 9-8 vs a solid West Lincoln Rebels squad. Brandon's performance was instrumental in the W; he took the mound in the 6th inning of a tie game w/ runners on 1st and 2nd then proceeded to shut the Rebels down the last 2 2/3 Innings of the game allowing only one runner to reach base. He was also 4-5 at the plate.
I know Lincoln County Baseball Enthusiasts are hoping this restores a Classic Rivalry between East Lincoln & West Lincoln which thrived with competition in the 2000's.
Congrats Brandon!
