The rebranding is all a part of the restructured Appalachian league.
It includes wood-bat play and is no longer directly affiliated with major league baseball.
During Friday’s virtual briefing, organizers also explained how the local community impacted their decision.
“I’m here at the iconic Hiwassee Trestle located along the New River trail, I’ve chosen this location because we’ve chosen to celebrate the heritage of the new river with our new brand, we also wanted a brand the entire fan base can relate to, especially the youngest among us,” said JW Martin, Calfee Park General Manager.
