Growing pains – both for the team and head coach – sum up the 2025 baseball season for the Mississippi Delta Community College Trojans. Head Coach Adrian Dorsey in his first season at Moorhead had to cobble together a team from scratch late last year and into 2025 after former Head Coach Luke Stanley took a job at Delta State as an assistant. Trojan players hit the portal and Coach Dorsey used his connections to work the state and the nation to fill his roster spots. With players from New York to Louisiana to Florida, Coach Dorsey and his assistant coach, Christian Day, worked to build a team in the toughest JUCO conference in the United States.
A tough 6-35 overall record and 3-25 MACCC slate was grueling and a tough classroom of hard knocks for the Trojans.
“There’s been a lot of good things. It’s a young team and literally one-third of our season has been against nationally ranked top 10 teams,” Coach Dorsey said. “We’ve been very confident in every single one of them. Just small errors and our young players learning the speed of the game, it catches up with you at this level.”
Coach Dorsey noted the “record is one thing but the kids are working hard and we’re seeing good things.”
With only four sophomores on the team, Coach Dorsey should have a good returning crew of players to continue building upon for the 2026 season.
