Welcome to Canyon Crest Ravens Baseball
The CCA Baseball Program is built on commitment, discipline, teamwork, and pride in everything we do when on the field, in the cages, in the classroom, and in our community.
We believe teams are not built by forcing uniformity.
They are built by developing individuals with intention.
Joe Maddon reminds us, “Get comfortable being uncomfortable.” Growth happens when we step outside of comfort in tough practices, competitive moments, and personal accountability.
Abraham Maslow wrote, “In any given moment we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety.”
At CCA, we choose growth; we will step forward into the uncomfortable for the unkindness/team.
Our program is structured around intentional individual development. Each player is expected to:
We are not building a participation culture.
We are building a performance culture.
Our mission extends beyond wins and losses. We are developing disciplined, growth-oriented young men prepared to meet challenges with character, resilience, and pride.
Develop the individual. Strengthen the team. Sustain the culture.

Coach Notes 2020...
"I want to thank everyone for their support of the baseball program this year and especially during this time. I personally cannot wait to get back out on the field as soon as we can and am sure many share that same feeling. To our 5 seniors, Matty Bernstein, Cole Colleran, Ryan Fuchs, Eric Lu, and Eli Rejto, I wish we could have ended your Raven's career much differently. You have each been tremendous assets to our program and want to make sure that you know, like the game of baseball, you will fight through this adversity and make the most of the challenges that will face you in the future."
