TAKING FLIGHT: Barbers Hill on the cusp of reclaiming supreme-status

Fresh off the heels of a stunning sweep against Friendswood, Barbers Hill Baseball is reminding fans and competitors that they’re not to be taken lightly.

As they prepare to take on Magnolia West in the Regional Semis, this week, the Eagles will look to their vets--namely SHSU-signee Jace Martinez (Sr. SS), Gage Kimble (Sr. C), Carson Garrett (Sr. CF), and senior pitcher Briley Van, among others--to keep the ball rolling.

The Mont Belvieu team is certainly capable of going the distance, considering they won the 2021 State Title, and they’re raring for the chance to add another ring to the legacy.

VYPE’s Matthew Ogle caught up with Barbers Hill’s long-time coach David Denny to see what has driven his dugout this year, and the “X-Factor” that makes the Eagles so dangerous.
