These 37 individuals have made a lasting impact on their program and the Hamline campus as a whole. Every day for the next few weeks, please check back to this page as a new senior will be added each day.

Tyler Brick has been a four-year member of the Hamline baseball program, contributing both as a first-baseman and also as a designated or pinch hitter throughout his career. He appeared in 43 games in his four seasons, recording 15 hits, eight walks, and 11 RBIs. Five of those 15 hits were for extra bases, hitting three homers and two doubles. During his sophomore season, he compiled a .318 on-base percentage and a 1.000 fielding percentage, while driving in five runs. Brick also drove in five runs his junior season, including hitting a two-run home run in a 5-4 win over Augsburg. This year, he hit a homer in the season-opener against Buena Vista and doubled in the team's 10-2 win over Lawrence at U.S. Bank Stadium.
 
What were you most looking forward to for this spring season?
I was looking forward to one last ride with my teammates.   
 
What is one of your favorite memories of your time at Hamline?
My favorite memories are from all the time spent with my teammates, whether that was at 6 A.M.s, practice, or hanging out off the field.  
 
Who is someone that has had a positive impact on you during your time as a student-athlete?
Jamie Destache. She is truly the best AT we could have asked for. She helped me come back from knee surgery early in my career and ever since has worked so hard to help me be able to perform at a high level.
 
What is your advice for your younger teammates?
Play every single game like it's your last.
 
What are you most proud of about your career as a student-athlete?
I am most proud of the culture that we built in our baseball program on and off the field, especially taking the lead off the field and being the first athletic program to participate in the StepUp! Bystander Intervention training and Mental Health First Aid training as a team.
