Baseball
Welcome to Cordova HS Baseball! Here you will find up-to-date information on the program that includes scheduling, fundraising opportunities, team store, player achievements and facilities. CHS has a long and storied baseball history, and we have many student-athletes who have went on to play in college on scholarship and who also have been drafted and played in Major League Baseball. Our standard is that our players are students FIRST, and in order to have the privilege to wear the Lancer uniform on the field they must be exceptional students and model citizens on campus and in the community. We look forward to the opportunity of teaching the game and developing our players into dynamic ballplayers and exceptional human beings who can take their academic and athletic achievements to the collegiate level and beyond. GO BIG RED!
