@OfficialGHSA
plz lets come together+ push spring sports to 2/1, adopt a CWS playoff format + iron out a summer/fall tryout. Encourage more multi sport (winter/spring) athletes w/ no overlap-we can make it work!👍

to get up on the wall in our hitting facility with all our other college players. Huge thank you to Landon’s HS teammate Jake Witterman and Family for the pictures. Wonderful families and memories!
A 22 win season, countless memories and some wonderful young men. We fell 1 run short of the elite 8 but just 3 weeks ago the playoffs seemed like a distant reality. Couldn’t be prouder of them-especially the leadership of our senior class. Love you all, thank you for this yr!
It speaks volumes about the character of your players when they all voluntarily show on a Sunday to pull the tarp off and remove water from dugouts-let alone Super Bowl Sunday… I’ll take character over wins all day and ironically the character leads to the wins! Thank you men!
Not in a million yrs would I imagine our season ending like this... so the least we could do was make the field a tribute to our 4 amazing seniors! Miss + love you guys, you deserve much more but so proud of you all!!

So proud of our boys locking down the region championship and 1 seed for the playoffs! A lot of hard work and well deserved for our young men! Couldn't be prouder!!
Last night we were knocked out of the Elite 8 by a special + talented Lowndes team. We may not have played 4 a State Championship but the legacy+memories left by these men will last in program history. The 2024 class won 83 games in 4 yrs w/4 straight 7A playoff appearances
As a father I’ve always wanted my players to become better men- seeing them come together in the face of adversity when a player lost a parent I could not be prouder of them all. Baseball aside this team is champions. I love you all and am proud of our baseball family.
Tonight our men became Region Champions!! A team effort we have timely hits and quality pitching to create a great night!!
