Sheridan Troopers Legion Baseball: It’s about time to play baseball in Wyoming.
The Sheridan Troopers Legion Baseball Team has been practicing for some time, and just recently, players have been taking things a little more seriously, as they prepare to play games.
Last year’s Wyoming AA State Runners-Up, are scheduled to play 4 games on the road this coming weekend against both Rapid City Post 22 and Post 320.
Head Coach Austin Cowen says Sheridan has been ready for sometime, and the mild winter has played in their favor.
The Troopers home opener is scheduled for Sunday, April 19th against Miles City.
