The Seminole State College Trojans baseball team is set to take the field at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark in Oklahoma City for the first-ever Battle at Bricktown on Saturday, March 1. The Trojans will face off against the Rose State College Raiders in a doubleheader, with games scheduled for 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Admission to the event is free for all attendees.

This special event, made possible through a partnership between Seminole State College, Rose State College, and Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark, offers a unique opportunity for players and fans alike. The ballpark, home to the Oklahoma City Comets, the Triple-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers, provides a professional setting that enhances the experience for student-athletes.

SSC Baseball Head Coach Mack Chambers is excited about what the event represents for the program and the community.

“This is an incredible opportunity for our players,” Chambers said. “They get the chance to compete in a big setting, something akin to the JUCO World Series. It’s also a great opportunity for our community and fans to see excellent baseball at a stadium where pros play.”

As of the latest standings, the Trojans hold a 7-4 record, while the Raiders stand at 5-7. Both teams will look to add key wins as they battle in one of the top ballparks in the state.

Chambers hopes the Battle at Bricktown will become an annual showcase, providing a high-profile stage for NJCAA baseball and strengthening the rivalry between the two programs.
