"We are excited to announce the hiring of Dru Sebastian to lead the Indian Hills Baseball program," stated Indian Hills Athletic Director, Kelsi Weeks. "Throughout the search process, Dru's passion for junior college baseball, energy, and vision for the program stood out in every conversation. He's a young, proven leader who brings a competitive edge and deep commitment to developing student-athletes both on and off the field. We are confident in the impact he will have on our student-athletes and the Warrior baseball program."

Sebastian comes to Centerville after three seasons at Eastern Oklahoma State College, including the last two as the program's head coach. Sebastian led the Mountaineers to the 2025 JUCO World Series in Grand Junction, CO, the program's first trip to the national tournament in 25 seasons. Eastern Oklahoma captured the 2025 National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) DI Baseball South Central District Championship where Sebastian was tapped as the South Central District Coach of the Year.
