Spring 2024

The 2024 season was a year marked by some challenges and also by some extraordinary highs. The team finished the season 8-15 & missed the playoffs but had some memorable moments.

2024 began with a team composed of nine seniors and five juniors. The team took on a challenging schedule including nine playoff teams & an eventual state champion. Through it all, the team hung together & fought hard, including a record breaking win against rival Thompson Valley

The season began in late March with non-league losses to Loveland & Fort Collins HS. MV earned their first win of the season versus conference foe Frederick behind the pitching of junior Lane Haring. The early season also saw a three game winning streak capped by a walk-off home run win versus Severance thanks to the bat of eventual team MVP, senior Caedon Meyer. The team struggled to find its way through the middle of the season but did earn a victory versus rival Longmont HS.

The pinnacle of the season, though, was the second game of the Thompson Valley series in May. On a windy day at Don Constanz field, both teams took advantage of the weather & belted a combined 51 hits. Going into the final inning, MV was down five runs in their last at bat. From there, the Lions erupted for 19 runs including three home runs (2 grand slams). School records were set for: Runs scored, Hits in a game, Home runs in an inning, Runs batted in, Extra base hits, Individual plate appearances, Individual at-bats, Individual runs scored (Jacob Mraz, 6), Individual hits in a game, Individual doubles in a game. The game ended with a 31-22 MV victory in a contest unlike any other.
