Grizzlies Success!
Some may say the greatest
accomplishments in baseball is your
record. The number of wins or our
Championships. We do not agree. As proud as
the Grizzlies are with our 2010
Championship and the following
players that made it to the "Bigs",
our greatest accomplishments is the
lives we have touched and changed
both in Cheyenne and the players
representing Cheyenne.
Take note:
Three Grizzlies have moved back
to Cheyenne after playing ball with
our summer team and started lives in
Cheyenne.
One player started a family in
Cheyenne and celebrated the birth of
a beautiful daughter in 2010. That's
right a person was brought into this
world because of the
Grizzlies!!!..... WOW
One player called the fire dept.
when a neighbors house was on fire
and help save that home.
Many, many players influenced youth
in Cheyenne to pursue their baseball
opportunities and good grades
through school.
and
Finally Grizzlies that have made it
to the Big Show!!!!!!
Cheyenne Grizzlies in the Bigs!
It is fun to follow our players as
they move on to the next stage of
their lives. All our successful
after their college playing time is
over. Some become successful
business people, others find their
way to help their communities and a
few get an opportunity to continue
their baseball dreams.
This page is dedicated to the
Grizzlies that blessed to receive
the opportunity to play another
level of baseball....We call it the
Grizzlies in the Bigs!
