For the past few seasons, Pella Christian has featured a young baseball team surrounding a small core of seniors.

In 2015, the Eagles say farewell to Jason Holwerda and Dillon Branderhorst. Head Coach Nate Johnson says they were the lifeblood of this team, and their leadership will be missed. Branderhorst finished the season at 4-5 as a hurler, and pitched 4 1/3 gutcheck innings against Albia in the finale. He also had a .400 batting average. Holwerda was every bit as stellar, finishing the year right behind Dillon in most statistical categories.
