Graham Baseball wishes to extend an invitation to each of you, to join us in recognizing Tim West, 1974 Graham High School graduate, as he throws out the ceremonial first pitch on Friday, April 25, 2025, at 5:15pm. Here at Graham, it is important that we recognize and celebrate the accomplishments of those that came before us. This is a chance for us to celebrate not only Tim’s on the field accomplishments, but an opportunity to recognize his family and some accomplishments that he and they have had since he left the halls of Graham High School! We are very fortunate to have such a supportive and involved alumni! Our mission is to continue to strengthen those relationships. We are excited to welcome Tim and his family back to Graham! I’m confident that “Timmie Time” is going to start the evening off with a strike and the Falcons will represent our community in a 1st class manner, on our way to a “W” over that team from the East that some call “Urbana”. -Coach Mitchell

👏🏽 Let's give a round of applause to our March Athlete's of the Month!! Great work Falcons!! 🦅
