⚔️ ON THE ROAD AGAIN

The final round of the 2025 Trojan Tour presented by Guardian Credit Union is set to get underway this Thursday with stops in Enterprise, Montgomery and Birmingham on the docket.
 
Various Troy coaches and administrators, including Director of Athletics Brent Jones, football head coach Gerad Parker, men's basketball head coach Scott Cross, women's basketball head coach Chanda Rigby and baseball head coach Skylar Meade will be featured across Trojan Tour. 
 
Admission to all Trojan Tour socials is free; however, the baseball game in Montgomery will require a game ticket to be purchased, and some locations will require separate food purchases.

80 days til kickoff, Trojan Fans!

Wearing #80 on his back, Troy legend Virgil Seay became the first former Trojan to be a part of a Super Bowl Champion as he and his Washington Redskins teammates defeated the Miami Dolphins, 27-17, in Super Bowl XVII (Jan. 30, 1983).

Seay played five seasons in the NFL, tallying 43 catches for 792 yards and five TDs.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Regionally Recognized. Captain America earned another line in his Troy baseball resume this week.

Junior backstop Brooks Bryan was named to the ABCA/Rawlings Southeast All-Region Second Team on Tuesday. It's Bryan's second consecutive season on the All-Region team, following a First Team selection last spring.

The junior was one of the Sun Belt's most productive hitters this season, batting .279 with a .931 OPS and 12 home runs while landing on the All-Sun Belt Second Team. Bryan was a force in the middle of the Troy lineup with a team-best 63 RBIs, which ranked third in the Sun Belt, while his 18 doubles also ranked third. 

Bryan started all 60 games for a Trojan team that went 39-21 and reached a No. 14 national ranking by Baseball America, its highest in program history. 50 of those games came behind the plate, where he gunned down 10-of-36 base stealers.
