Ephrata Tigers Baseball season recap
EPHRATA – The Ephrata Tigers baseball team ended their 2025 season with a 4-18 record after entering the district tournament as the number eight seed. “As the season went along, we had our bumps in the road with different teams we were playing and that’s going to happen,” Tigers head coach David Tempel said. “I was very pleased with how we competed in some of the games where on paper it looks a little bit like a tall task.” Coming into the season, the Tigers were made up mostly of young players with very little varsity experience. The goal for them this year was to just improve as much as possible and utilize the teachable moments that occur in every game as the season progressed.
