Welcome to the 68th Annual Avista NAIA World Series
On behalf of the faculty, staff and students of Lewis-Clark State College, welcome to the 2025 Avista NAIA World Series. LC State is proud and honored to be hosting the tournament for the 25th consecutive time, and 33rd time overall.
As a former student-athlete, coach, and athletic administrator, I truly value collegiate athletics and the important role it plays on campuses and in communities. In particular, this national baseball championship stands as a hallmark of excellence not only for LC State and the NAIA, but for all of collegiate athletics.
I thank the community, sponsors, many volunteers, NAIA championships staff, and the LC State Athletic Department for consistently putting on a wonderful tournament. I also thank the fans for supporting the student-athletes both on and off the field.
Again, welcome to the Avista NAIA World Series, and best of luck to our 10 teams.

Leaving their Impact on NAIA Baseball - 2025 NAIA Hall of Fame Inductees
Denny Grubb - Lewis-Clark State (Idaho), Meritorious Service
In 1977, Denny Grub began serving Lewis-Clark State College (Idaho) as a volunteer historian and statistician, covering more than 2,500 Warrior home athletic events and establishing all of Lewis-Clark State’s official record books. When the NAIA Baseball World Series moved to Lewis-Clark State in 1984, Denny volunteered to be the official statistician of the games, a title he still holds today.
Since 1984, Denny has recorded statistics for nearly 600 NAIA World Series games, and in the process, he created the official record book for the NAIA World Series. Denny spent hundreds of hours reviewing microfilm and newspaper archives to ensure no details were excluded. The official records include information as specific as “the last time a team won with just one hit” or “the last time a team pulled off a triple steal.”
It’s important to note that Denny has never been officially employed by the NAIA or Lewis-Clark State. His contributions have been purely voluntary, and in some cases, he has utilized personal vacation days to provide services at NAIA games.
Denny was inducted into the Lewis-Clark State Hall of Fame in 2013 as their first “Special Contributor,” and the Lewis-Clark State press box is now named in honor of him and his contributions to the school.
No individual has had a greater impact on athletic statistics and historical bookkeeping than Denny. His selfless commitment to preserving NAIA records has ensured that decades of history remain intact.
Bobby Halford - Wiliam Carey (Miss.), Coach
After graduating from William Carey University (Miss.) in 1976, Coach Bobby Halford returned to the institution as an assistant baseball coach and the first head coach of the women’s basketball team. Nearly 48 years later, Coach Halford remains a dedicated member of the William Carey coaching staff.
Throughout his tenure at William Carey, Coach Halford has held numerous roles, including athletic director, head coach, and assistant coach. Most notably, Coach Halford has been at the helm of William Carey’s baseball team for the past 38 years. With more than 1,337 game wins, Coach Halford has guided the Crusaders through 17 regional tournaments, nine opening rounds, and three NAIA World Series appearances. Additionally, more than 40 of Coach Halford’s former baseball players (and three former women’s basketball players) went on to play professionally.
Coach Halford was named the NAIA’s Baseball Coach of the Year in 2017 and was inducted into William Carey’s Sports Hall of Fame in 2015.
