2025 ADS All-College Team

It was another banner year for Alberta athletes plying their trades south of the border in U.S. colleges.

As we return for our sixth annual ADS All-College Team, we couldn’t help but notice how many tight races there were for several roster spots.

We are proud to present the 2025 ADS All-College Team.

Hart of a Family

Baseball can bring families together, whether it’s weekend baseball tournaments, driving to different events across the country or playing catch in the yard on a Sunday afternoon.

That’s the exact case for Max and Eric Hartman.

Tyson Shushkewich of Canadian Baseball Network has more on their journeys.

2024 ADS All-College Team

In looking through the last five years of the ADS All-College Team rosters, there has always been a strong contingent of returning veterans year after year.

However, younger players have been knocking on the door every year and, this year, they broke through in a big way.

We present the fifth annual Alberta Dugout Stories All-College Team.

Hartman a Hit at WSU

Max Hartman is no stranger to success on the baseball field.

From St. Alberta Minor Baseball up through Dawgs Academy and the Baseball Canada Junior National Team, he has always been a sought after commodity.

Hartman is proving why in his sophomore season at Washington State University.

Hart of a Champion

As Eric Hartman roams centre field at the Rogers Centre this week at the Canadian Futures Showcase, he’s continuing a family legacy started four years ago by his older brother Max.

The St. Albert Minor Baseball Association and Dawgs Academy product is coming off helping the Okotoks Dawgs win their seventh WCBL championship, and is looking forward to joining his sibling at Washington State University in 2024.

To The Max

He wasn’t expecting the call.

But when St. Albert’s Max Hartman picked up his phone to hear Baseball Canada head coach Greg Hamilton’s voice, he was over the moon.

The outfielder took a moment to chat with us about representing Canada the 18U Friendship Series against the US and getting to do it with a few Dawgs Academy teammates.

7th Inning Stretch: Max Hartman

One of the younger players from Alberta who attended the recent Tournament 12 (T12) in Toronto was Max Hartman.

The 15-year-old roamed the outfield at Rogers Centre for Team Navy during the showcase event, which was hosted by Blue Jays Baseball Academy and took place from Sept. 17-21.

We spoke with the Dawgs Academy product before and after the T12 to find out more about him and what it was like to be selected as one of Canada’s top 150 baseball prospects.

He answered the following seven questions for us for our 7th Inning Stretch profile.
