TEXARKANA MAGAZINE
There is something magical about a baseball game on a warm spring night, the kind that stretches into the heat of a Texas summer. The crack of the bat followed by the whoosh of a fastball and then the unmistakable pop as it meets the catcher’s mitt. You hear players chatting from the dugout, umpires calling balls and strikes, and the crowd rises and falls with every play— cheering for a home run, groaning at a close call, and then erupting in joy when their team gets ahead.
These sounds are becoming more and more familiar at Texas A&M University-Texarkana (TAMUT), a sign of a growing baseball program led by a coach whose roots in Texarkana run deep. Chase Brewster, the Eagles’ head baseball coach, does not just bring a wealth of experience—he brings a passion for the game and a commitment to building something special. “I believe when someone asks me about my background, I think it screams Texarkana,” Brewster says. “This is home. This is where I fell in love with baseball, and now I get to help shape the future of it here.”
