 The Brainerd Warriors baseball team is off to a hot start this season. The Warriors are sitting on a 3-0 conference record after beating Rikori last night in a double header, and they're doing all of this under the leadership of their legendary head coach Lowell Searcy. Coach Searcy has been at Brainerd since 1973, and he notched his 700th career win last week in the opening day win against Alexandria. Searcy says that he hasn't won any games, he credits the players for his 700 wins. But when it comes to the secret to his long illustrious career as a high school baseball coach, Coach Searcy knows exactly where the credit goes. My wife has always been supportive, that's number one. You have to have a wife who is supportive of what you do. I still enjoy the kids. People say, well the kids have changed, and I say, no they haven't really. The influences around the kids have changed, but I don't think the kids have changed any since I was in school. That's a while ago. Coach Searcy's next opportunity to notch win 703 will be next Tuesday when the Warriors travel to Sartel, St. Stephens.
