Recent plans to renovate the soccer field have left Bryan students asking questions regarding other Bryan sports facilities. Are there any plans for a Senter Field makeover? Why was the soccer field chosen first? Will the cross country team ever get a running track?

Jon Brown, Advancement Dept. representative and former Bryan baseball player, suggested that plans are being made to renovate the baseball field and, in fact, have been in the works for several years.

“When I came in as a student in 2006, they already had an idea to renovate the baseball field,” said Brown. “It’s just never been put into action.” Read full story »

“Let me pray about it,” was the response of Bryan Lions catcher Jon Brown upon receiving a request to be interviewed for a “Triangle” article. He’s no fan of being in the spotlight, and he’s certainly not one to take credit for anything without acknowledging the help he’s received from others around him. He’s also a “hard-nosed” baseball player “committed to excellence,” according to Head Baseball Coach Taylor Hasty.

A senior this year, Brown has experienced both the highs and the lows of a college baseball career. He started out as a redshirt for the Tennessee Wesleyan College Bulldogs (Athens, Tenn.).

The Bryan Lion’s baseball team tackled a tough three-game series this past weekend against the RedStorm of the University of Rio Grande (Ohio) and came out with two loses and one determined win.

Head Coach Taylor Hasty said that the RedStorm is a “very well-coached team from top to bottom” with “five really good seniors in their lineup who can all hit.”

“Friday, we failed to throw strikes, and we really didn’t finish off hitters,” commented Hasty. “We had eight total walks, seven of which scored and we kind of lost momentum as a result of that.”

Junior pitcher Bronson Holland said, “I believe we’re better than the team we played. We just made costly mistakes.”

Saturday proved to be better for the Lions with the first game a close loss and the second a solid win. Read full story »
