Barat Baseball

Welcome to the Blog of the Barat Academy Baseball team

The basic philosophy of the Barat Baseball program is to develop Christian baseball players into the hardest working baseball team in Missouri. We will reach this level by instilling discipline in our young men. We want to take pride in the fact that no other team in Missouri works harder than us. In doing this, we will bring honor and glory to Christ, Barat Academy, our family, and ourselves.

Whether we are talking about baseball, academics, or anything else in life, we believe doing it right and doing your best is the only option. We believe each member of our team must have high character. True character is measured in times of adversity. Anyone can have a good attitude when times are good. The question is how one will react when times are tough.

While we must remain confident because of the hard work we have put in, we must also remain humble. In humility, we become aware of our own faults before Christ. In these moments, we learn to depend on Christ in all areas of our life.

Mission
To establish a baseball program with a tradition of sustained excellence as a Christian, in the classroom, and on the baseball diamond that is respected for its consistency and the characters of its players.
To establish a baseball program that develops Christian baseball players with the option to play collegiately.

Vision
We want to win MSHSAA state championship with men of Christ-like character.
