The calendar has turned to the a new year and that means the OSSAA high school baseball season will be here soon. Classes A1, A2, and B officially get started February 23 while the rest of the classes begin March 2.

Up until that the beginning of the season, SSBR will be providing previews of as many teams as we can. Recently, SSBR sent out questionnaires to the high school coaches across the state of Oklahoma asking for their top returning players, top newcomers, overall strengths/weaknesses, and their overall assessment where their respective programs are coming into the 2026 season.

What you have below are the responses to those questions in the words of the coaches themselves.


Today’s team: Bethany Bronchos

Classification: 4A

2025 Spring Results: 29-6 (State Semifinalist)

Head Coach: Robert Lee

Head coaching experience: 7 seasons (2 at Bethany)


Top Returners

  • Karter Thomas – SR – Rose State
  • Cooper Willis – JR
  • Brody McLaren – JR

Top Newcomers

  • Cooper Suarez – SO

Overall Team Strengths

Speed/Pitching Depth/Defense

Overall Team Needs to Work On

Experience – several newcomers that just need to play

Outlook

I think we will be better than a .500 team. May start 5-6 players at times that have very little varsity experience but are capable. Very excited about this group.
