Mullins Player of the Year

Gage Mullins was recently named McAlester News-Capital Spring Baseball Player of the Year.

Mullins suffered an ACL tear during the second week of football season. He was sidelined for months but worked with his physical therapist to be able to return to the baseball diamond this spring.

During his senior year, he spent a lot more time with his father, Justin, who was named the 2021-2022 head coach of the McAlester Buffs baseball team.

Mullins finished the season with a .402 batting average, .493 on-base percentage, 45 RBIs and a state tournament appearance.

Now an alum of the Buffs, Mullins has his sights on the future, committing to play college baseball for Murray State College in Tishomingo, Oklahoma.
