BaseballThe Sun Devils baseball team has a history of success on the diamond, including a state championship in the 1992-93 season. Now, a key player on that championship group has returned as a coach to lead Kent Denver into an exciting future.
In Coach Tierney's first season, the Sun Devils showed promise as a rising contender in the Metro League. Looking forward to the 2027 spring season, the team returns six players who received All-State or All-Conference recognition the year prior.
In addition to Kent Denver's state championship in 1993, the Sun Devils have also had notable success in the state tournament in the past decade. In 2017, Kent Denver they won regionals and made it to the semifinals in the state tournament. The following year, the team returned to the state quarterfinals after knocking off the state's No. 1 seed in regional play.
In the 2025-26 season, the team appointed Chris Tierney—an alum of the 1993 state championship team—to lead the baseball program into the future as varsity head coach. His passion for Sun Devils baseball runs deep. He was a bat boy when his older brother played in 1987 before joining the varsity team at shortstop in 1993 and 1994.
