CMU Fighting Falcons Baseball Team review for 2023-24

Fighting Falcons Baseball finished the regular season 29-22, with a record of 13-2 in our conference alone. This season we achieved the most wins in CMU Fighting Falcon Baseball history. The team has now finished first in our conference 4 years in a row , Making the Playoffs once again .
Baseball has played in 5 states, made history beating our first NCAA Team. We are playing the best baseball at the right time. As we head into the regionals Playoffs once again, here are some Players to watch:

- Steven Matchan - Steven is our starting 2B and team captain. He will hit in the middle of the order and be a catalyst for our offense. He leads the team in stolen bases.
- Joseph Taylor - JT, as we call him is our ace and the leader of our pitching staff. JT has been spectacular all season. He had a rough start early in the year, but has been on top of his game the last couple of outings. JT will be up to the task.
- Claudio Corrales - Claudio is the work horse of our pitching staff leading the team in appearances and innings pitched. Claudio has pitched in some big games the last couple of seasons. With his experience starting game 1 of the playoffs we believe this will be his best playoffs.

Congratulations to Coach Quintero, his staff and CMU baseball ⚾️ Team!
