Our Baseball program is committed to developing each player as an individual, a teammate, and a follower of Jesus Christ. We aim for success and take great pride in hard work and striving for excellence. However, we also recognize that success is more than baseball. Our focus is representing God with honor and integrity, building character, and cultivating lifelong skills that extend far beyond the baseball diamond. Our players look back and recognize the growth and strong community that is Warrior Baseball.

My experience with the baseball team has been absolutely incredible. The group of guys around me, and the coaches above me, have just pushed me in my athletic skills, my mental approach, and my attitudes on and off the field. The baseball team at Wheaton Academy is more than two teams making up one program; it is a brotherhood of guys who are all pursuing Christ the the game of baseball that we love and through the competitive drive we have.
Wheaton Academy helped shape me as student, athlete, man and Christ-follower. Through the coaching staff, teachers and my teammates I was given the tools needed to compete at the next level athletically, while also being given a Christ centered academic experience. I will always be thankful for my time at Wheaton Academy.
