In a sport known for repetition and hard work, Brett Jaime was the epitome of both during one of the most productive four-year stints in the history of the program. Driven to succeed on every at-bat, Jaime developed into a line-drive hitting machine and a dedicated student of the game.

Starting behind the plate or at designated hitter, Jaime made a strong statement in a freshman campaign (2002) marked by power and poise at the plate. Crushing a team-high nine home runs, he finished second on the club with 41 rbi and a .552 slugging percentage. Just as impressive, though, was his eye that drew a team-high 41 walks and produced a .447 on-base percentage, an impressive mark for a power hitter.

There was no let-up or sophomore slump in 2003 when Jaime's career year propelled the Mustangs to their first-ever, regular-season GSAC championship. Starting all 47 games, he hit a sparkling .341 with club-highs of 10 home runs, 57 rbi, 20 doubles, and 38 walks. His outstanding performance earned him All-GSAC and NAIA honorable mention All-American honors.

Although his numbers took a dip a year later, he continued to be the club's "iron man" (starting all 46 games) and one of its primary run-producers. Hitting a solid .293, he belted nine more homers, drove in 31 runs, and earned 33 walks.

In 2005, he capped off a memorable career by leading the club in batting average (.333), home runs (6), doubles (12), slugging percentage (.542), and on-base percentage (.416).

Jaime's diamond accomplishments were so prolific that five years later he's still No. 1 on the career list for home runs (34), rbi (161), doubles (59), and total bases (360). 

After earning his bachelor's degree in history in the summer of 2005, Jaime returned to his native Washington to pursue his teaching credential and a master's degree in education. Following a year as a sixth-grade teacher, he joined the faculty of Rainier Christian High School where he has been teaching history for the past two years.

In June of 2006, Jaime married Laura Beaty (TMC alumnus and former volleyball player) and the two currently serve at Taylor Creek Church in Maple Valley, Washington, where they teach the Word of God to 4-5 year olds.

With all of these commitments, Jaime has not forgotten about the game he loves as he runs the Jaime Baseball Academy and coaches an 18U (and under) summer team.
