Brook Hill Guard baseball team receives 2024 state championship rings

The Guard took down the League City Bay Area Christian Broncos, 9-2, to claim the title back on May 14.

BULLARD, Texas — Almost five months after recording the final out, the Brook Hill Guard baseball team finally received their state championship rings.

The Guard took down the League City Bay Area Christian Broncos, 9-2, to claim the title back on May 14, making it the the fifth championship in Brook Hill baseball history.

Head coach Don English addressed the team, their families and fellow staff members reminiscing about what made last year's team special both on and off the field.

"Our kids really loved each other," said Coach English. "They really took ownership, whether they were starting, subbing, rarely playing, they all took ownership into what we were doing in practice every day, they cared for each other, and they really embodied the verse that our season was based off. Second Timothy 1:7, 'God did not give us the spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline', and that's how they played."

Coach English is already looking forward to another big year for the Guard in 2025. After nearly 40 years as a head coach, English is just 15 wins away from 700 for his career.
