Baseball 2022-23
Play ball! Alpena Community College has revived the men’s baseball team after a nearly 50-year hiatus. The decision
was announced in May 2022 and since then there has been a flurry of activity as the team prepares for competition.
Dr. Don MacMaster, ACC president, and Cindy DeRocher, athletic director, cited several reasons for bringing the team
back including longstanding community support for baseball, the relatively low cost to support the sport, and the anticipated enrollment bump that adding an athletics team would bring to the College.
ACC then went to work to find a coach. After an extensive search ACC hired Robert Enslen, an award-winning player and coach, as head coach of the Lumberjacks. With Enslen and his assistant coaches in place, recruiting began in earnest.
Quickly over 30 players from throughout Northern Michigan and beyond expressed interest in being on the team!
The College also secured the use of Veterans Field in Ossineke to be the new home of Lumberjack baseball.
Currently, the team is practicing at the new field in preparation for a full schedule of games beginning in March 2023.
