The 1st ever @aba_hq JV Championship goes to @A3_Trojans MS JV as they win it 9-5! Congratulations to the Trojans players, coaches, and families. #DiamondCoverage

A3 Middle School plays up in the ABA JV division and defeats TNXL in the finals to win the first ever ABA JV Championship! @aba_hq

The Rays are the first AL East team to win 9 of their first 10 divisional games since the 1992 Blue Jays ... who won the World Series 👀

A young arm to bookmark, follow closely moving forward that shows tremendous upside, potential is 2031 RHP Lucas Diaz of @A3_Trojans HS JV as he ran his FB up to 84 in his first frame. Mostly sat 81-83 and mixed in a low 70s CB with depth and shape. @aba_hq @DiamondProMedia

Congratulations to the 2026 senior class for @A3_Trojans! We wish you the best of luck on your next steps. @aba_hq #DiamondCoverage
