Starting in the 1960's, incoming National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Hall of Fame Coach Ernie Myers fashioned a program that won 11 Conference Championships, three Region XII Championships, and three top Ten finishes in the NJCAA National Championship tournaments. The Bears are rich in tradition for not only having Coach Ernie Myers involvement. The Bears also have three former coaches who are currently coaching at a higher level as well: Steve Lyons, Grand Valley State University; Dan Shelton, Saginaw Valley State University; and Doug Greenslate, Aquanis University. Today's team competes in the Michigan Community College Athletic Association (MCCAA), one of the toughest leagues in the Nation, and has gained a reputation as being a contender for Conference, State and Regional titles.

Home games are held at the newly renovated diamond at Kearsley Park. This is one of the best fields in the Region 12 Conference.

The Bears have received honors on the baseball field and in the classroom as well. Joe Seagraves, 2nd Team All-Region, finished 2nd in the nation with 12 saves. Phil Silva And Lee Foco received All-Region Honorable Mention. Josh Loy, Academic All-American, earned a 3.69 GPA and Joe Seagraves received Academic All-Conference and earned a 3.52 GPA. The Bears batted to .305 as a team this year which ranks 4th on the All Time list in MCC's 40 year Baseball history.
