Mason — you taught me how to live a life of gratitude and to approach every day with a zest for life. We will do our best to honor you in the way we play this year. Miss you buddy.

For all those that came before, thank you for laying the groundwork. No more bullet heaters and no more sweat boxes, but I can assure you the blue collar work won’t change. So grateful for all that made this a reality.

The first week of
@maxwell_costes4
freshman year, I told him that he would change the world one day and it would have nothing to do with baseball. He's well on his way. Proud of the man he is becoming.
.
@maxwell_costes4
has fought to prove himself to everyone his whole life.
As someone who has seen the dark side of that unending cycle, he has a message for others 🗣️
Read his story:
Some guys make it and it shocks you, others make it and you never had a doubt — Mikey is one of those. Knew this dude would play in the Big Leagues after his freshman fall. Special talent, elite worker, great human! Congrats big man!
Billy Phillips stomped Leukemia. Now watch him pitch.
Strikes out the first collegiate batter he faces and then rolls a double play.
What a moment.

Option 1 - Sit on the couch, sleep in and get worse over the next month.
Option 2 - Go to Barnes and Noble, buy a $0.99 composition notebook and become a better version of yourself.

Guys like Billy are the reason I believe I have the greatest job in the world — can’t wait to have him back on the mound in the spring

In 2005, Coach Hill gave me the chance to live my dream and play college baseball. In 2010, he gave my my first job in college coaching. I will forever be grateful for that! Enjoy these next few weeks coacher -- it's been a good ride!

What an awesome night in Terp Nation! So fun seeing former players back supporting the program and had a blast listening to the panel and hearing their stories. Couldn’t think of a better way to kick off the season — I’m incredibly grateful to be apart of such a special place.
Kicked off the season right last night at our 2019 Leadoff Banquet!
Huge thanks to our fantastic alumni panel and all the former Terp players that made it out!
2018 Iron Terp Top 5:
1. Ben Cowles
2. Randy Bednar
3. Taylor Wright
4. AJ Lee
5. Daniel O'Connor
Incredibly proud of how the boys competed and attacked everything that we threw at them. Can't believe the fall is over and excited to compete with them this spring!

Last week, Maxwell was named a two-time All American. This week, his writing will show you that baseball is what he does not who he is. I told him 2 years ago that he’d change the world — I’ve never been so sure of it!

Big shoutout to
@benjamin_cowles
for being the first freshman ever to win the Iron Terp. I'm going to spend the next 12 months trying to figure out what he's not good at. Young pup has a lot of growing to do but he knows how to compete

Powerful story -- proud of you, Maxwell! Person, student, player...

The Game 1 Lineups are in — “Wild Bill” Phillips gets the nod for the Ole Liners in the first game as freakishly tall Freshman Trevor LaBonte will look to keep a potent Old Liner offense in check. Should be a good one today folks

I’ve seen the crew from
@mdbaseballnet
grow over my ten years in College Park. To say they care and have a passion for our players is an understatement.
Thankful for all they do!

Very excited to announce that I will be joining the
@BowieBaysox
broadcast team this season. I could not be more thankful for this opportunity, and cannot wait to get started and join the
@Orioles
organization!
Winners win because they behave like winners! Randy embodies everything that it means to be an elite level student athlete and winner. This young man will be a massive success — not only in baseball, but in life. I’m proud to get the opportunity to coach him day in and day out!
Love this — honored to work with and alongside some truly amazing women and to be married to a rockstar! 👇👇 this is what it’s all about!

Washington's Head Coach Ron Rivera, who was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year, got a planned IV at halftime in order to make sure he could continue in the 2nd half.
Incredible.
I’ve never met
@judahsmith
, but heard him say the other day that this book influenced him the most as a leader, so I picked it up in the airport tonight. Fifty pages in and can’t put it down. Go pick it up and check it out if you want to continue learning to truly lead people!
History is on the side of the Old Liners as they’ve won every Terrapin Cup since its inception. And worth noting,
@JustinGallanty
hopped on the Old Liner bandwagon tonight after they took a late lead. It was good seeing him not in PJs today though so there’s that
