Going Loco

It might be a while before “Dancin’ Dane” Tofteland is a nickname that sticks.

But don’t be surprised to see the Albertan from just outside Grande Prairie bust a move or two when he suits up in the brand new Banana Ball circuit next summer.

Herron’s Crossing

All Tyler Herron wanted was a chance to put his foot in professional baseball’s door.

The Grande Prairie native has always been willing to do whatever it takes to move up the ladder in baseball, whether it’s moving to a new town or changing schools.

He’s now into his first full pro season with the Tampa Bay Rays organization.

Eastbound and Up

Is Brandon, Manitoba the next destination for the Western Canadian Baseball League?

As the circuit looks at the potential of building up to 16 teams, the Manitoba city has reportedly expressed interest.

We look at the history of summer collegiate baseball in Brandon as well as the other markets that could be potential landing spots for the WCBL.

The WCBL’s 16-Team Dream

Airdrie? Grande Prairie? Lloydminster? Another Edmonton-area team?

The Western Canadian Baseball League has filled a major gap in its territory by bringing Saskatoon into the mix again in 2024.

So what’s next? We asked WCBL president Kevin Kvame.

Lights Out

What a year it was for Donovan Wallace.

The Northern Lights Baseball Academy hurler’s squad took home a trio of medals over the summer, including a provincial championship.

He put the wraps on the season by being named the Baseball Alberta U18 ‘AAA’ Player of the Year.

The Grande Gator

Escaping the Great White North for the sunny south of Florida, Grande Prairie’s Lars Davis is making a name for himself once again.

Once a highly-touted Canadian baseball prospect and taken in the third round by Colorado, Davis is hoping to help Florida State repeat as College World Series champions in his third season as volunteer assistant coach.

Swing and a Drive

Dayne Fredland is no stranger to sitting in the passenger seat of any vehicle. He spent many of his teenage years on the road between Grande Prairie and Okotoks. And he’s now traveling the open roads of the north-central United States plying his trade in the college ranks. But home is still where his heart is.
