The McKinney Marauders 10U put on a strong fight in the E9 DFW Slugfest tournament this weekend. After two days of baseball, the team reached the semi-finals with big wins over the tournament's 3 seed and 5 seed before falling in a tight game with the 1 seed. The team made major improvements in all facets of the game and look forward to the next tournament.

⚾ A special night at JTJ Athletics!

Our Marauders players had the opportunity to meet Jayden Lobliner, catcher from the University of San Diego and a 2026 9th-round draft pick of the St. Louis Cardinals.

Jayden spent time with the boys, answered their questions, and talked with them about baseball and his journey to professional baseball. It was a great opportunity for our young players to hear directly from someone taking the next step in the game.

Even better, Jayden is now offering private catching and hitting lessons at JTJ Athletics!

⚾ Catching — receiving, blocking, throwing & game-calling
⚾ Hitting — swing mechanics & approach
💰 $125/lesson | 10 lessons for $1,000
📍 JTJ Athletics — McKinney, TX
📩 DM to book

Thanks to Jayden for spending some time with our players. We’re excited to have him training athletes at JTJ!

And that’s a wrap for Cooperstown!

These boys sure did put on a show! After winning their first playoff game 15-3, they then went on and battled the #8 seed in a hard fought game. They ended up just short, falling 4-2 in the Round of 32. The Marauders ended the week 5-2.

Offensive stats were off the charts! In 7 games, they had 77 hits, 88 runs scored and 20 home runs. 6 different players hit a home run but everyone on the team contributed in a big way!

This week was much more than the baseball though, it was about a team being together for a full week, and the families supporting them. All the little things like breakfast in the morning, or team wiffle ball, or pin trading, or late night keep away in the bunk…these are the things the boys will remember. This truly is a special group of boys with some amazing families!

“We’re the McKinney Marauders and we’re living the dream!”

We are so proud of our 12u Marauders! Awesome job boys!

A quick stop at the Hall of Fame this morning followed by two games for the 12u boys.

They split today but the bats continue to roll. 41 hits, 48 runs, and 10 home runs in 3 games! The Marauders roll into the last day of pool play with a 2-1 record looking to do some more damage!

Shoutout to Tucker for hitting one home run, Blake for hitting two home runs, and Tristan for hitting two home runs in their first game today. Reid followed that up with two of his own in the later game!

Continue to play Marauders baseball boys! Keep fighting!
