    Episode 74: Gerrit Erickson - UCCS Baseball

    As the RMAC gears up for its last championship weekend of the 2025-2026 academic year, The Sidelines highlights an inspiring comeback story that has served as one of the foundations for the UCCS baseball team's record breaking season. Gerrit Erickson, senior pitcher for the Mountain Lions, faced a similar frustration to many baseball pitchers when doctors couldn't quite identify the pain he was having in his throwing elbow. After a doctor with the Colorado Rockies finally diagnosed his UCL tear, Gerrit was told on his 21st birthday that he would need Tommy John surgery. Despite the grueling process that was ahead, Gerrit leaned on positive people around him, including his girlfriend, family, coaches and teammates, eventually making his way back to the mound and earning the RMAC's Pitcher of the Week honor not once, but twice this season. Tune in to Episode 74 to learn how Gerrit has fully embodied the spirit of being a Division II student-athlete, and how the UCCS baseball team, under the leadership of Coach Dave Hajek, plans to continue their momentum into the RMAC Tournament next weekend.

    Episode 72: Izaak Siefken - Colorado Mesa Men's Track and Field

    Colorado Mesa senior and men's javelin school record holder, Izaak Siefken, has undoubtedly made the most of his collegiate career, even though it hasn't looked exactly how he imagined. From a young age, the Broomfield, Colorado native knew that baseball was a passion that could open the door for a Division I college journey. After spending two years as a pitcher for the University of Illinois, Izaak began to face mental blocks in his game, which were only fueled by an early career injury. Throughout the ups and downs of baseball, Izaak's love for training and general throwing mechanics, along with his faith and perseverance, led him to the Colorado Mesa track and field team, where he now enters the 2026 RMAC Outdoor Track and Field Championship as the No. 1 javelin thrower in the conference, and No. 10 thrower in the country. Izaak's story is proof that being a college athlete doesn't always follow a linear path, but rather teaches you to find the good in every opportunity to connect with teammates, try new skills and compete to the best of your ability. Join The Sidelines in celebrating Izaak's incredible accomplishments, while looking ahead to an exciting RMAC Outdoor Track and Field Championship this weekend in Pueblo.
