SKYHAWK BASEBALL 2011
SPRING TEAMS
Skutt Catholic has 3 teams competing against Nebraska Class A & B high schools. The spring season begins with practice/tryouts on February 28th, and it continues through the middle of May. We are looking at possibly keeping 50-54 student/athletes for our SkyHawk baseball program. At present count we have have 66 students interested in baseball. The class breakdown consists of: 5 seniors, 13 juniors, 13 sophomores, and 35 freshmen.
RESERVE/FRESHMEN
This team is the beginning high school level of SkyHawk Baseball. It is designed to increase player’s knowledge and ability of the games of baseball. Players will learn what it takes to compete at the high school level by participating in hard practices, improving basic fundamentals, and competing in games. The team will have 16-18 freshmen players on the roster.
Head Coach = David Emmanuel Assistant Coach = Dustin Rothe, Scott Heiman
JUNIOR VARSITY
This team is focused on the continued development of players at the sophomore and freshmen level. Preparation of players for the varsity level is a goal. Our philosophy concerning the promotion of younger players up to the next level is as follows: If a player has the skills to play at a higher level we will only move players up if they will receive appropriate playing time. We will not move players up to sit and lose playing time. The team will have from 16-18 players on the roster.
Head Coach = Brian Chladek Assistant Coach = Dan Nowak
VARSITY
This is our programs top competition level. Playing time is earned through hard work and performance. Players will have defined roles, and will need to work hard for the success of the team. Preparation for college baseball is also promoted.
Head Coach = Shawn Exner Assistant Coaches = Tim Lackovic, Bryan O’Flynn, Joe Servais
Due to the number of athletes trying out, some students will not make the teams. Team reductions are the toughest job of the coaching staff. There is no easy way to inform a player that they did not make the team. Coaches will have a sit down session with all players on Saturday, March 5th before noon to inform each player whether they made a team or not. We realize this is a tough situation for the candidate and his family. The coaches understand that this is a sensitive and emotional situation for these players, and we are very concerned about their well-being whether they are baseball players or not. Players and their families have put in years of time, effort and love of the game so decisions are not taken lightly by the coaching staff. We don’t feel that we ever cut a bad player. In fact, most are good players and great kids. Coaches have to make tough decisions, and the coaching staff makes a group decision on which players will most benefit the SkyHawk Baseball program.

1. FORMS: Each player must have a physical form, participation form, and a blue card completed and
filed in the office before they can participate in try-outs.

from baseball to improving their grades. Players may be suspended from practice until grades have improved. Our athletes need to know that they are student athletes. Academics will always come first!!

usually is an indicator of student’s poor behavior. Encourage your son to keep his total down.
