PSC Men’s Baseball continues to battle and compete midway through the season

At the halfway mark of the season, Pensacola State baseball remains in the fight, currently standing at 4-4 in conference play. With a young roster facing tough competition early on, Head Coach Bryan Lewallyn describes the season as one of resilience and perseverance. “We hit the restart button after some challenges early in the season,” said Lewallyn. “As any season goes, adversity sets in. We got decimated with injuries right as we started to peak, which forced several key players to the sidelines.”
