Keim was around in 1985-87 and was the Montana Legion Baseball Player of the Year and went to play two years of minor league baseball. Tuss played both minor league baseball and football for Montana State, the only Senator to ever do that.
Swanby played for four years in 2001-03 and won three state titles while leaving the program with the career wins record (35). Lesage is the only Senators player to pitch 10 wins and bat .400 in the same year.
Sternhagen hit 21 home runs in 2011, which is the most all time for the Senators and in Montana AA Legion Baseball.
