HISTORY & TRADITION Traditions are not established over days, weeks or months; they are built over years and fortified over decades. Greatness is not achieved by accident. Championships are not won by surprise; there are conditions, standards, indicators, that every championship team meets. Even the upset winners, the teams that come “from nowhere”…all share the same traits. The prime factor is that they do it TOGETHER.
HISTORY & TRADITION, cont. • 13 Division Championships • 11 KingCo Championships • 14 Regional Championships • 20 State Appearances • 6 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLES (1976, 1978, 1982, 1997, 2001, 2006)
HISTORY & TRADITION, cont. • 47 Years of Newport HS Baseball • 100+ Players to the next level • 52 Division 1 players • 31 Players drafted • 8 Major League players
