COLDSPRING — The COCISD Trojans took the time to pass along their knowledge of America’s Pastime during a recent camp.
Head Coach Austin Riddell said the camp serves as an instructional league for the athletes, as well as a way to start building a new generation of players for the school.

It was the third baseball camp, the first after a hiatus due to COVID, and Riddell said it is going to be an annual occurrence.
Around 40 athletes signed up to come and more was expected; the Trojan baseball team, along with several high school coaches, were the instructors.
