Coach 'em up: Traverse City West's Ian Robertson tops Record-Eagle All-Region Baseball Team as 2023 Player of the Year

Jul. 23—TRAVERSE CITY — Just call him "coach."

Traverse City West senior shortstop and pitcher Ian Robertson may as well have the title. All his teammates already called him that.

"He was always a situational coach when he was on the field," Titans head coach Matt Bocian said. "They joke around and call him 'Coach Ian' on the field, but he's a general out there."

He's heading up the 2023 Record-Eagle All-Region Baseball Team as well, earning Player of the Year honors.

As far as the "Coach Ian" moniker, teammates say his reinforcement of what Titan coaches say just brings the message home even more.

"He's basically a coach for us," said junior center fielder Isaac Kelsey. "You can hear him every play, telling people where to be. It comes better from a player perspective than coming from a coach, for sure."

Robertson ended his TC West tenure as the Titans' all-time hits leader and committed to play college baseball at Tufts University in Boston. Interestingly, nobody else at West plays the same combo of three boys sports — soccer, basketball and baseball — as Robertson. He earned nine varsity letters in his West career.

"Ian is a very smart player, one of the smartest I've ever had," Bocian said. "He knows what to do on the field and in the classroom."

Robertson grew up in North Carolina, but his exuberant support of all Titan athletics is obvious, whether he's leading the student section at basketball and volleyball games or heading up the bucket brigade at West football contests.

"Front row, banging on buckets, for sure," said Kelsey, who also was West's starting quarterback last season. "He's everybody's biggest supporter."

Robertson also serves in student government and gets to hand pick the bucket brigade, where he, Trae Collins and Ben Schramski typically head up the student section for football games. Part of his student government role included sitting in on interviews and giving input for West's girls soccer head coaching position.

"He has pride," Bocian said. "He has pride where he goes to school and wants everyone there to succeed."

One childhood friend he's kept from his North Carolina days is Jackson Ferris. They lived in the same neighborhood in Mount Airy, North Carolina, and their dads coached baseball together.

Ferris, a left-handed pitcher, was drafted in the second round last year by the Chicago Cubs.

Jackson and Robertson played on the same baseball teams growing up, playing up an age group to be on Ian's older brother Luke's team in Little League.

"He was great at calming me down and making me not nervous," Robertson said. "It was always good to be around those guys. It really helped me love the game."

Luke is playing at Albion College, and their father Jim, played at the College of Wooster when the Fighting Scots made the Division 3 College World Series. Clearly, baseball was in his blood from an early age.

"As far back as I can remember, I've been swinging a bat and throwing," Robertson said.

Jackson has always rooted for the Boston Red Sox, so now that Robertson is headed to Boston, and the duo intends to take in a game at Fenway Park.

Robertson played three years varsity, starting at third base as a sophomore, but he played all over at second, outfield, shortstop and designated hitter.

That gave him a deep knowledge of every position outside of catcher on the field, which he put to good use later to help a Titans team that was supposed to be in a rebuilding year of sorts into one that won 29 games, including district and regional championships.

"What's weird is our team that made the state quarterfinals were not as talented as the last two years," Robertson said. "The young guys were just always working, always at the field, getting swings in. They bought into the culture."

Robertson said the West coaches had the players buy into an underdog mentality that led to a district crown with wins over Marquette and Traverse City Central by a combined 9-2 score. Robertson went 3-for-7 against Central in the marathon 15-inning game.

West then went on to a 1-0 regional semifinal win at Midland Dow as Jack Griffiths tossed a no-hitter to help beat Caledonia 6-2 for the regional championship at Central Michigan University as Robertson went 2-for-3 with two RBI, two runs and a steal.

"The coaches are always there, always working, giving us a lot of confidence," Robertson said. "They know how to motivate us."

Part of that motivation was Bocian telling Titan players Caledonia was only throwing its third-best pitcher against them, using that white lie to motivate the team when Caledonia actually did use its top pitcher, Grand Rapids Community College commit Canyen Veldhouse.

"You understand there were going to be growing pains," Robertson said. "The beginning of the year was tough. I hate losing. ... To watch it all come together and to be beating teams we shouldn't be beating made it worth it."
