INSIDE PITCH: VYPE Baseball Rankings, No. 14 Deer Park Deer
No. 14--Deer Park Deer Baseball
2022: 25-9 (District 22-6A Champions/Area Round Finalists)
HC: Chris Rupp
Despite losing some of his previous roster’s starters to graduation, 11th-year coach Chris Rupp (442 career wins) is not hurting when it comes to his supply of athletic prowess.
Following a 25-9 overall record and district championship campaign, the Deer bowed out to Strake Jesuit in a heated series. This year’s Deer headliners will feature a duo of senior Blinn-signees in first-team, all-district OF/RHP Erik Aguirre and OF/LHP Dillon Mancha.
Their battery mate is standout catcher Dillon Lester (Baylor). RHP/1B Brayden Gilley (Houston Christian) will also play an expanded role in 2023.
Expect Deer Park baseball to make a run for their second State Title (2017).
