Legends in the making! ⚾️👏

We are proud to share that last week, Clay-Chalkville High School baseball player Kedrick Thomas participated in the elite “44 Game” at Rickwood Field! This matchup brings together the top players from the Hank Aaron Invitational, an educational training experience for athletes across the country.

Kedrick was one of only two players from our state selected for the showcase game, and we are incredibly proud of the work he’s put in to get to this stage!
