Press release Medina LOYAL
Medina LOYAL Baseball and Softball proudly recognizes a man whose impact on our organization cannot be measured in wins, losses, or championships alone.

For 20 years, Chris Goyette dedicated countless hours to Medina LOYAL Baseball. As the driving force behind the league, Chris handled everything from scheduling games, recruiting coaches and umpires, ordering and maintaining equipment, caring for our fields, organizing registrations, and tackling countless behind-the-scenes tasks that often went unnoticed. Through it all, he also coached teams himself, and later guided the Medina varsity baseball program, helping shape generations of athletes.

His commitment to the league has always ensured that local children continued to have the opportunity to learn, play, and grow through baseball.

Because of Chris’ dedication, Medina LOYAL Baseball (and now LOYAL Softball as well) is what it is today.

Our mission has always been to help local children grow through teamwork, sportsmanship, and a love of the game while keeping baseball and softball accessible to as many families as possible. For two decades, Chris embodied that mission in everything he did.

To honor his years of service, a commemorative plaque has been installed on Field 3 at Butts Memorial Park. We hope it serves as a lasting reminder of the impact one person can have on an entire community.

Thank you, Chris, for 20 years of leadership, dedication, and unwavering commitment to the players, families, coaches, and volunteers of Medina LOYAL Baseball and Softball. Your legacy will continue to inspire future generations for years to come.
