Julian Tafoya III - A lifelong resident of Cheyenne,  Julian graduated from Central High School. He experienced success at every level of baseball. As a 10-year-old, he was a part of the Cheyenne Junior League NBC All-Star team that won the Wyoming State Championship and played in the National Tournament in Arlington, TX. Once in the Post 6 program, Julian was a part of two state championship teams under Tagg Lain's guidance. In his senior year, Julian set the single-season record for RBI while holding down the starting shortstop role. After high school, he had the choice of playing baseball or football (he was an All-State WR his senior season). He ultimately chose baseball and headed to Northeastern Junior College in Sterling, CO. Tafoya played two years at NJC, played ball for the Chillicothe (MO) Mudcats in the summer, and finished his collegiate career playing DI ball at the University of Louisiana-Monroe - playing shortstop at every stop. Upon the end of his college playing days, Julian returned to Post 6 baseball as an assistant coach under Brad Barker III winning more State Championships at the Prep and Junior Varsity level. Julian is the founder of the Cheyenne Pirates (a local adult baseball team) and is the manager and plays. They have won 12 League Championships and 3 National Championships. Additionally, he is the President of the WYCO National Adult Baseball Association(NABA) League that the Pirates play in. Julian is the son of Julian and Jenny Tafoya. He and his wife Heather have 3 boys, Julian IV, Eli, and Arlo along with 2 foster daughters. He has coached his son's teams through their years with WYCO and is now on the Post 6 Board and the youth coordinator for the WYCO Academy . In the off-season he can be found wishing it was baseball season. 

Bradley Barker III - Brad began his playing career like most other young players - with his dad in the backyard. From there, he went on to play in the Cheyenne Junior League. In 1993, he led his team to a perfect 18-0 record. As a starting pitcher and first baseman, he was selected for three All-Star teams. With WYCO competitive teams not yet in existence, he then played for the Cheyenne Youth League, where he helped his team to 2 championships & and held the home run record for years. When Brad was 14, he was cut after trying out for Post 6. He spent another year playing CYL, setting the stage for his Post 6 career.    As a Sixer, Brad had a .404 batting average, 21 homeruns, and for several years held the single season home-run record. Brad broke the single season home-run record in walk-off fashion, at home, against Casper. Brad was an integral part of the Post 6 2001 State Champion team - the first state championship since the early '90s. He played first base, DH and was the closer during his senior year. Brad then went on to play at Northeastern Junior College and Southwest Baptist University.  In 2003, he began coaching for Post 6. As a coach he managed the Prep Team and the Hawks until 2012. His teams established an unparalleled level of success, posting state championships in every season except one. Brad is currently back in the program and head coach of the Hawks. “A special thanks to all the coaches and my teammates throughout the years. To my parents and family: who I am and what I have done could not have been possible without you. Thank you.”
