In the first ever ASAA sanctioned state baseball tournament, the Bears defeated North Pole to reach the title game but fell just short of a state championship, falling to East Anchorage, by a 3-1 score. 
Garrett Schoenberger and Dylan Hickey were both named to the All-State Tournament Team in  Jim Ayers’ first year as head coach.

The Bears were again based around pitching and defense, limiting opponents to just 37 runs all season (2.3 runs per game). They batted .315 as a team with 8 home runs and 68 runs scored (4.3 runs per game).

Schoenberger, a senior catcher, led the team offensively, hitting .349 with 4 home runs, 13 RBI, and 7 stolen bases. Grady Treston hit .333 with 2 home runs and 11 RBI and Casey Walker batted .353 with 10 runs batted in.

Kent Mearig topped the Bears pitching staff with a 3-0 record to go with a 2.37 ERA and 27 strikeouts in 23 1/3 innings pitched. Walker went 2-2 with a 2.43 ERA and 18 strikeouts, and Will Nicholas posted a 2-0 record to go with a 3.57 ERA and 14 strikeouts.
