I just got off the phone with a recruit that’s a 2 sport athlete. I asked him what his role was on his basketball team… without hesitation he said, I take charges and I’m a leader.
Not much else I needed to know at that point!!!

One year ago today, Coach Wathen passed away. John Wood is a great option for aspiring baseball players in large part due to the work he put in over 25 years.

Absolutely crazy that Payton is still on the board IMO.
Big time player/ better person/ influences culture/ works his tail off
P.s- He can without a doubt play a corner OF at the division 1 level.

You don’t have to throw the perfect pitch, you just have to throw a competitive pitch.
You don’t have to hit a homer, you just have to hit the ball hard.
