The 2015 spring season will definitely be a test of resiliency for Bellevue College baseball’s team after a roller coaster 2014 season. The team graduated all but two starters; a pool in which nine of those are now playing at four year NCAA division one universities, and is also coming off a devastating loss in the conference championship. The 2014 squad not only lost in the final inning with a veteran group, but also went down in defeat in controversy, as following the game, the umpiring crew admitted to making an incorrect rule interpretation which warranted a protest/right to replay.
With 19 new members on this year’s squad, Bellevue hopes to keep the tradition they have established. BC captured NWAC titles in 2007, 2009 and 2011, and has finished in the top three in six of the last eight years! Two pitchers, Zander Clouse and Marty Luckenbach, are being followed by professional baseball clubs as potential draftees this spring. A relatively young offense will be led by Alex Check and Alex Galgano, the only two returning starters from last year’s squad.
