We are excited to share former Crane High School Baseball Coach and Assistant Principal, and current bus driver, Mr. Bryan Harmon, is being inducted to the Missouri High School Baseball Coaches Association (MHSBCA) Hall of Fame on Saturday, January 24, 2026 at 6:30 PM at The Resort at Lake of the Ozarks in Lake Ozark, Missouri. See the press release from MHSBCA below.
Mr. Harmon graduated from Crane High School in 1989, before attending Drury College where he earned his degree in 1993. He coached baseball at Crane beginning in 1993 where he served as assistant coach until taking over as the head coaching duties in 2006 before retiring after the 2022 season.
Coach Harmon won 397 games as head coach at Crane after being assistant coach for 202 wins. Crane will become the ninth school in Missouri to have two coaches in the MHSBCA Hall of Fame as Bryan joins his mentor and predecessor Bob Conrad (HOF 2009).
Coach Harmon has served many roles in the MHSBCA over the years. He was Class 2 Vice-President (4 years), President-Elect (3 years), and President (2 years). He continues his leadership role in the organization where he has served as the Executive Director since July of 2024.
Congratulations, Coach Harmon, on this great honor! Crane R-III is proud of you!

Crane R-III Parents and Guardians,
We want to make you aware of an active situation in the area involving a suspect who is considered armed and dangerous and is currently still at large. Out of an abundance of caution, all students will remain indoors for the time being.
Junior high and high school students who normally travel to agriculture, weights, or junior high PE classes outside will be directed to walk through the elementary hallways.
Our staff will continue with indoor routines and remain vigilant. As always, if anything concerning arises on campus, it will be reported and addressed immediately.
We will share updates as soon as additional information is provided by law enforcement.
