Baseball games won’t be the same this year without my grandfather there to tell me all of the pitches I should’ve called and bullpen moves I should’ve made. He will be greatly missed by so many. Rest easy Poppy. 🙏
COVID 19 cancelation perspective from CofC head coach Chad Holbrook: “You’re talking to a dad who had a kid with cancer, so what goes on, on a baseball field is very inconsequential”
Great week for

HC Chad Holbrook doesn't have a ton of hobbies outside of baseball. His kids, in college. He needed balance.
A guy known for his recruiting prowess, one of his best recruits in Charleston- Scottie Frier. A guitar teacher.
I sat in, on today's lesson.
Couldn’t be more proud. Stepped on campus as a lightly recruited strike thrower. Developed himself into one of the most dominant closers in the country and one of the best to ever sling the rock at CofC. Congrats William!
Recruiting in New Jersey and a former player of mine Tanner Myatt happens to be pitching for the Yankees AA team about a mile away from my hotel! The baseball family stretches far and wide. So proud of him
Just saw a kid dancing on the side of the road as he saw his school bus approaching for the first time in months! A great start to my day. Hope everyone has an awesome first day back.
2025? Really? Let’s use “12 year old” instead. Remember kids, baseball is supposed to be fun! Go play, compete, win, and eat some ice cream afterwards.
Our beautiful city celebrates its 350th birthday today! How lucky are our players to be able to go to school, play baseball, and live in the best city in the country? Go cougs!
Excited for Adam and his family to join us! After just a few days on the job, I couldn’t be more excited about the impact he will have on our players and program

was a part of it. Here he is picking up trash underneath the benches just minutes after playing his final game in a Cougar uniform and putting up an All American caliber season. Ultimate teammate and competitor
Cougar baseball and the CofC Athletics family mourns the loss of Hayden McCutcheon, a three-year standout for the Cougars who passed away on Thursday.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Hayden’s family during this difficult time. You will always be a part of our family, Hayden.💔
Here’s a stat for all my pitching followers..

picked off more people this summer (11) than the number of people he walked (10). It’s not just about pitching! Control the running game and field your position!
Winter Prospect Camp registration is officially open for January 21st. This will be our first camp held on our new field!

Kid says to me, Amir how do I get my spin rate up on my pitches. I immediately look at him and say kid Idk. I know zero about that. Are coaches really preaching to kids about spin rate? Instead of competing. What good is spin rate if you can’t get outs? I’ve always wondered that.
One of the best in SC to ever do it! Taught me that the biggest game of the season is always the next one. Thankful to have played and learned under Coach Stokes
BREAKING:

@LEDemons
head baseball coach Randy Stokes has stepped down. David Stokes has been named as the interim. More on this story soon.
@WpubRadio
I'm tired of seeing "They don't make people like Jalen Hurts anymore" because he was benched and pulled for the success of his teammates. Coaches need to realize that we are a part of the "they" and have a chance everyday to teach young people selflessness
1B/RHP Cole Mathis (
@CofCBaseball
) burst onto the scene after outstanding spring and summer seasons. Mathis last spring hit .330/.439/.575 with 20 2B, 9 HR, 51 RBI, and more BB (41) than K (37). On the mound, he worked a 3.45 ERA with 52 K to 17 BB across 60 IP.
Mathis picked up
