Comets Hall of Fame

Over the years many Comets players have been able to pursue their baseball or softball beyond the Club. This is in line with our Mission and we’re proud of these players, their performance and achievements.

Note: This list is not complete and is a work in progress. If you’re aware of a player’s achievement that isn’t recorded here, please let us know.
