Wait we’re already in January 2026? Time is flying man, feels like 2025 just ended
DAY 433 (1036/536) on THE ROAD TO THE 2026 6TH WBSC-MLB WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC – JuCo Season
Yesterday marked the turn of the US and Canadan NJCAA organization to begin its season.
These JuCo Bandits of the two year colleges of these nations began their baseball year this weekend determined to make these months of the varsity season count as part of their preparations for finishing the final two years in a college or university either in the NAIA or NCAA leagues, as well as the smaller USCAA.
They yesterday commenced season play for their colleges, full of the confidence and determination to do their best for their alma mater and hometowns, while also showing the fans and baseball scouts watching all season long of their resolve to run all the way to the fulfillment of their dreams to become top quality stars ready to make one more step towards the MLB Draft or independent leagues.
For the fans, the JuCo season, which signals that the collegiate varsity year is finally on, is a time for the fans, who while preparing for the top divisions in the NCAA, are already enjoying these two-year athletes in action in their stadiums ready to play with all their heart and grit for the goal of a conference and league championship for their college in one of the three NJCAA divisions by season’s end.
With two of the four varsity organizations having started their season in the USA, only 2 more are left awaiting the beginning of their season.
For Glory
John
I saw a meme that said this in one of my baseball Facebook groups:
In 9 months, you could be at the ballpark watching a playoff run or changing diapers.
Choose your warmth wisely this weekend.
