Baseball

Benson is currently the only school in the Omaha Public Schools district without its own baseball field. Transportation challenges made it difficult to sustain the sport, as getting teams to practice and game locations after school was often impossible. Despite these obstacles, two years ago, Coach Sibbitt assembled a team of novices who had never held a bat or ball before. He managed to form two groups: a beginner team and a more advanced team that quickly developed their skills.

Looking ahead, with your help, there is hope that Benson will soon have its own baseball field across the street in Gallagher Park, further strengthening the program and making baseball more accessible for all students.
