Thank you, Aces.
Not only did you make a historic deep NCAA tourney run, you had the number one team in college baseball on their heels. You fiercely competed day after day and left everything on the field.
More importantly, you brought so many people together. You had local businesses opening their doors on their day off to give community members a place to watch the games with neighbors. Businesses were offering deals in your honor. Purple was spotted in several locations all across the city. Local kids have been idolizing their hometown sports heroes and thus dreaming themselves of being in your cleats one day.
You created such a positive buzz in the community that we hadn’t seen in years. You have made us proud.
What a season. Thank you.

People have always made UE what it is...and I cannot speak enough about the guys in the @UEAthleticsBASE program! Absolute class, win or lose.
Will miss the 11 seniors beyond words and cannot thank the entire team enough for the ride this year! I never thought I would be here.
This team will go down as one of the greatest in UE Baseball history. MVC Champions. Regional Champions. First ever 4 seed to beat the No. 1 overall seed in an NCAA tourney. #GUAC🥑
