The baseball lineage, era by era — at the strength the record carries

To 1968 · 1969–2026 · THE SCHOOL FRAME WHOLE; THE TOWN-TEAM ERA AS RESIDUE

The lineage the checklist wants runs from a first club to the present one with no era skipped; on this ground the school frame is whole and the town-team era before it is a named residue. The eras as the record carries them: the town-team era — pre-school and sandlot ball, the Legion-ball years — stands in no source this section reached at club size: no named town club, league or season is attested for New Carlisle before the schools' record opens, and the era prints as residue, its settlers the Gazette and Tribune sports runs and the records of American Legion Post 297, the Swanson post, whose sponsorship is the era's likeliest carrier. The one-school era: New Carlisle High School's teams, to the school's close in 1968. The consolidated era: New Prairie from 1969 — the Cougars — through the long middle of sectional play to the era of finals: the softball program's 2006 state-final appearance standing behind its 2023 Class 3A championship, the school's first state title in any sport; and baseball's 2024 Class 3A championship, won 7–2 over Brebeuf Jesuit at Victory Field, the school's first trip to a baseball final and its second title in two years — the regional network's account records a twelve-game winning streak from 6 May, sophomore Reed Robinson's two-run single in the fourth, and Tyson Greenwood's Mental Attitude Award. No era in the carried frame is skipped; the frame's own honesty is that its first era is a gap with settlers, printed at the head of the lineage rather than papered over with a generic town team.
