How you react to failure is just as important, if not more important, than how you react to success. Coaches want to know what type of player you are when things are not going your way. Do you pout, run, and hide? Or do you grind through, stay up with your team, and persevere?

2025 RHP @trumanparker00 was commanding the zone in his inning of work today. After pitching in the academic game Thursday night, he came back two days later and kept guys off balance and continued to get soft contact with the 2-seam/ CB combo. 85-88 topping 90 this week.
