Gulls Prep’s Road to Okotoks

They have flown onto the game’s map in a big way in a short time and hope to swoop in to snag Baseball Canada’s biggest prize.

Started in 2024 as a partnership between the Western Canadian Baseball League’s Sylvan Lake Gulls and St. Joseph High School Baseball Academy, the Gulls 19U Prep team brings together the best high school baseball players from central Alberta.

They’re now ready for their biggest challenge: The Road to Okotoks and the Morneau Cup.

Grind of the Braves

Despite a 24-12 regular season, the Red Deer CarStar Braves felt like they had to grind out a lot of wins.

They took that mentality into the Baseball Alberta Elite League playoffs, capturing the provincial title.

The Braves then rode that momentum into nationals, claiming Alberta’s first gold since 2012.
