The Madison baseball squad etched a historic moment this week, securing the Legion state championship on their home field after a dominant season that also featured a high school title just months earlier.
The victory marks the first state Legion crown for the program in more than ten years, underscoring a resurgence that has excited fans and alumni alike.
A season built on unity
Coach Ike Kurtz has long emphasized that the team’s chemistry and shared experience are the foundation of their success, noting that the players have grown up together and know each other’s strengths intimately.
In a recent interview, Kurtz highlighted the squad’s resilience, accountability and relentless winning mentality, traits that have carried them through tight games and demanding schedules.
The championship adds to a double‑title season, reinforcing the notion that the program is peaking at the right time and setting a strong tone for future competitions.
