Crooms Baseball Returns This Friday After 50+ Year Hiatus
The Crooms baseball team will make its debut after a 50+ year hiatus this upcoming Friday at Historic Sanford Memorial Stadium at 4:00PM. The boys varsity baseball team will face off against Lake Mary Prep this Friday - February 23 - at 4:00PM; admission costs $3.00 for students and $5.00 for general public. Concession stands will be available.
The Panthers last fielded a baseball team over 50 years ago. This inaugural game for the Crooms AoIT baseball team will be played inside a stadium that is built on the grounds of Sanford Field. This storied field hosted baseball legends like Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays, Tim Raines, and David Eckstein; it also served as the spring training facility for the NY Giants. Be sure you come out and cheer on our Crooms AoIT Panthers to victory; who knows, you might even see the making of future baseball legends playing on these hallowed grounds!
Sanford Memorial Stadium is located at 1201 Mellonville Ave, Sanford, FL 32771
