Baseball

On the field, Taylor competes in the always competitive Mid-Central Conference (MCC).  This year our spring schedule begins in the middle of February and continues into the post season the first week of May.  Our schedule always features some of the best teams in the Midwest as well as providing us at least three opportunities to travel south to play teams in Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida.

But playing baseball at Taylor is about more than just the games on the field. Read more about Baseball at Taylor.
