PLAY BALL!!! Those are two words that baseball fans love to hear. The people of York County will soon hear those words as Kingsmen Baseball players from all over the country descend on Rock Hill this week. Thirteen of the 23 players will report on Wednesday, May 25, with the remaining 10 players reporting when their collegiate season ends.

Head Coach Joe Hudak is excited to get the boys in town. “This is always an exciting time for me”, the Kingsmen founder and head coach said. “Every summer is a new team for the most part.
