Grady graduated (1997) as part of the winningest class in the history of Lancer athletics, being part of 127 baseball victories. He was known as a great defensive catcher (.976 fielding %) and, while stealing statistics were not kept, also for his outstanding arm, with opponents rarely trying to steal on him. He was named SDIC All-Conference in 1996 (2nd Team) and 1997 (1st Team). His teams won the NAIA South Dakota District his first two years, and then won the SDIC Conference his junior and senior seasons.
