The Alpine Cowboys are celebrating another success story as former outfielder AJ Folds has signed with the Boise Hawks, a team in the MLB-partnered Pioneer League.
The announcement was made by the Cowboys organization on social media, congratulating Folds and recognizing his next step up in professional baseball. Folds, known for his strong hitting and defensive skills during his time with Alpine, becomes one of several Cowboys alumni to advance to higher levels of the sport.
The Boise Hawks, based in Idaho, are an independent professional baseball team affiliated with the Pioneer Baseball League, which partners with Major League Baseball to develop and promote top-tier independent talent.
The Alpine Cowboys, part of the Pecos League, have long served as a springboard for players pursuing professional opportunities, and Folds’ move reinforces the team’s reputation for cultivating talent ready to move up.
Fans and teammates across the Big Bend region are wishing AJ Folds continued success in Boise.
