Dear Eagle Baseball Alumni, Family, Friends and Fans,

My name is Andy Morgan, and I am Head Baseball Coach at Northeast Texas Community College. We are extremely excited about this group of young men we have on campus this year. Our goal is to help develop our student-athletes in four main areas. We are going to help develop them into the best men that they can be, the best students they can be, the best baseball players they can be, and the best teammates they can be. We are going to accomplish these goals through hard work, selflessness, accountability, and commitment.

As we approach our 3rd week of the Fall semester, the SGA team is gearing up to execute a successful Backyard Bash Thursday, September 9, 2021, at 6 pm. The purpose of this event is to encourage unity on campus through a fun-filled picnic-style event. Throughout this event, the SGA team will have everyone check-in at the entrance gates, get their free wing baskets (first 60 people) and their hamburger baskets. After the guests have gotten comfortable in their seats, the SGA team will be announced, athletic coaches will share insights on their teams and we will hear a word from Dr.
