RECRUITS, don't be afraid to leave home for the right situation. College baseball is loaded with opportunities right now, don't miss out bc you're afraid to take a leap of faith.
Right program, right FIT, might be the best decision you make to grow as an athlete and human being.

Easier said than done, but it REALLY helps open your eyes to the world outside, promotes relationship building skills, and gives you that opportunity to chase that FIT in the right program.

Had two young men committ today to other baseball programs without communicating or thanking us for the consideration.
Do I agree with it? Ehhhh, we run a pro style program here, we don't get salty, we go get better ๐

The Value of Strike One ๐ฏ
RECRUITS, if you send footage of yourself executing a bullpen with a (4/16) 25% ball-strike ratio, I'm going to assume you're just trying to light up the radar gun.
BB's don't win ball games.

Stevens commented on his return to LN this summer, โIโm excited about the opportunity to work towards a common goal of player development and championship baseball." (1/2)

Force production + a short compact stride will maximize power output. From a pitching development standpoint, we ALWAYS start from the ground up ๐ฃ

@FreddieFreeman5
in the post-game interview elaborate on HC Brian Snitker, "he was the same person when he was my 3B coach when I was coming up, he's always coached the person first."
COACHES, spend time getting to know your players. They're people first
#TopDown
One BIG Goal I have in 2022 is to be a light for all the younger coaches I come in contact with. If I can open a door or bridge the gap, use me as a resource.
It's hard to TRUST the process in the darkness. Wishing everyone a successful beginning, middle, and end to 2022!!

DM's and Recruiting Footage:
โขYou better TRUST the teammate that's filming your game footage and utilize the MUTE button.
โขTake Accountability for the footage that you release to coaches.
โขThe baseball community is a VERY VERY small community.
You find out HOW MUCH you love the game when a DIII National Contender in the NE is the ONLY program bidding for your services..
What lengths are YOU willing to go to??
Toughest day of the year, hands down. Love to see how much our kids have grown, but it's never easy to see them leave. To the seniors, thank you for choosing
#TheStone
and leading by example.
Don't be afraid to tell your kids how much you love them and appreciate them.
RECRUITS, you need to understand how big ANY programs pipeline is right now. You are not 1 of 1 anymore..
you're 1 of 100, 1 of 1,000, or 1 of 10,000. Roster spots are at a MINIMUM, don't sleep on those offers!!

FINANCIALLY, the college experience is an investment. You'll find out very very quickly how much you love playing the game of baseball, especially when your career is on the line..
Set realistic vs unrealistic options.
RECRUITS, every school wants to hear that you're ready to commit now. Evaluate, reevaluate, and make the best timely decision for you. Even at a DIII, we don't force our recruits to commit immediately, we don't have too bc relationships are KING.
RECRUITS, no matter where you decide to commit, go where you're presented opportunities and your performance on/off the field warrants those opportunities. Rents due everyday no matter where you commit..Transparency is KING!
For most..OF defense doesn't become a priority until the player is a defensive liability. Ball reads, active feet, anticipation skills, and arm strength/accuracy take work.
OF play is a LOST ART

OR

Blessed that it happened n grateful for two really good years. Keystone is a special place; as coaches, all we can hope for is that we left it better than we found it n changed a few lives along the way.
Thank you, Skip!
