The Weatherford College Coyotes clinched the 2023 conference baseball championship with two wins over Grayson College on Thursday at Roger Williams Ballpark. 

It is the program's second league title; the 2004 Coyotes won the championship in the college's second year of intercollegiate baseball. WC has a 23-3 record in the Northern Texas Junior College Athletic Conference, seven games ahead of second-place Temple College. 

At 40-9 overall, it's also the most wins in school history, breaking the record held by the 2010 and 2015 WC squads. 

Weatherford won game one 11-0. Robert Fortenberry threw a gem, allowing just three hits, no runs and no walks while striking out six Grayson batters. 

Jack Clark hit a grand slam in the bottom of the third inning. Robin Villeneuve and Dayton Tockey also hit home runs.           

Game two was a 6-2 WC victory. Villeneuve moved to the pitcher's mound and earned the win, allowing three hits and no runs in three innings while striking out four. 

Joey Baran added a grand slam of his own in the bottom of the third. Louka Daoust also homered. 

WC hosts Grayson again Saturday in a 1 p.m. doubleheader.
