For years we have seen the level of respect that youth have for authority, for others and even for themselves slowly decline. Many conversations have been held in school board meetings, in church parking lots or just around the dinner table about how things have changed. The question that has to be asked is what has been done to help that change. In August of 2011 Faith Roberts-Graham developed Mo

Championship game didn’t end the way we wanted, but we are beyond proud of our MIE Tigers 8U squad! Came up short 7-4 against a tough Forestview Yankees team in a hard fought battle, but these boys truly left it all on the field and battled until the final out.

Huge thank you to Coach Jay, our entire coaching staff, and every parent who supported this journey all season long. Your sacrifices, encouragement, and dedication mean everything and none of this would be possible without you. Proud of the growth, proud of the fight, and already looking forward to coming back next year to finish what we started and seal the deal! 🐅⚾️

Building a program is not easy, and it’s definitely not for the weak. I do my best to lead with integrity, always putting God first and keeping our kids at the center of everything we do. What makes me most proud is seeing the growth in our players this season. Last year, we had one team make the playoffs. This year, we had four teams competing and making noise. Our 6U fought hard and fell 10–9, our 12U came up short 8–7, and our 10U battled to the end tonight and came up short 7–6. That growth means something. 8u is still holding us down and will be back in action Saturday.

After almost 20 years of coaching, I’ve learned that no matter what decisions you make, someone will disagree. But I’ll continue leading with integrity and remembering that at the end of the day, these are kids. I will always be a kid first coach. They’re going to have fun, learn the game, be respectful, and compete the right way. Wins and losses are part of baseball, but tonight, even coming up short, I’m forever proud of my MIE Tigers.

The streak continues tonight for the MIE Tigers! 🐅🔥

Our 8U Tigers punched their ticket to the next round last night, and now it’s time for our 10U and 12U Tigers to keep it rolling! Come out and support as we look to advance and keep the momentum going!
