West High School -

West High School is proud to offer baseball. The Iowa High School Athletic Union sanctions our high school sports for boys. Our teams compete in the Missouri River Conference. Through involvement in athletics, students learn valuable life skills, including teamwork, leadership, and commitment.    

Head Coach: Gabe Hoogers 
9th Grade Coach: Tyrell Blakey
Assistant Coach: Robert Bailey

Student-athletes give their all, both on and off the field. Countless hours go into strength, conditioning, and practice to build strong athletes that are prepared to compete. Likewise, our athletes fulfill academic requirements in order to participate in sports. 

Our students are gracious in victory and defeat. While we compete to win, our athletes know, it’s how you play the game that matters.
