Dearest Mother,
Today we venture westward through the Great Plains, final destination Clovis, NM. The troops have been fed and the trail wagons are packed. The guns are loaded and the pickaxes are sharp. We plan to make Amarillo come nightfall...or by morning.
With Love,

As the dust settles, and in our time of reflection, itโs been a great four years here at S&T. Couldnโt have asked for a better group of guys to practice and get better with, and I canโt wait to see what yโall do next year โ๏ธโ๏ธ Chase Cole and PB, signing off๐ซก

Weโre Back!! They have kept us inside too long (tan lines), but we had a great camp. Camp is now over and we begin the quest for the coveted GLVC Championship. Our hunt begins in the black hills of South Dakota against another set of miners.

During this holiday season, please consider helping out Coach Sudโs family. Coach Sud is an amazing coach, and even better person. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Day 2 of asking

for a NIL deal
Another superb meal this time in Horn Lake, MS
The vanilla soft serve hit different today
Thereโs nothing we would want more than some GC swag to rock for our next game day!!๐๐๐
We are off on another adventure, this time up to the Mitten state. It's not the will to Win that matters, everyone has that. It's the will to prepare to Win that matters. We have been charging the legs up all week ready to destroy some footballs tomorrow.

No one, and I mean no one, comes into our house and pushes us around. If you aren't pissed off for greatness, then that means you're okay with being mediocre. Today is an opportunity to be great, we just have to take it. We're ready, bring it on!

We have been preparing all week for this heavy weight fight. It is going to be a physical battle with punches thrown from both sides but our award winning Water Boy will keep us up in the fight. The only W they are going home with is W the warrior for the Win will be ours.
We woke up today to the sound of a herd of Buffalo rumbling into town. We saddled up in preparation to defend our home range. The heat will be a challenge but the Miners are sure to tame the herd.

Just wanted to put this out there after our 3x17 squat day today: weโre not responsible for any damage to the scoreboard this year from our field goals, call Coach E with any complaints.
Beloved-
We have a unique situation this week, the battle of the Reverse Gold Rush. Azusa-Pacific, CA has formed a militia, traversing eastbound to our home state of Missouri. We have an army of prospecting miners to defend our booty. Come hell or high water the gold stays here.
Major Gen
Our journey upstate has birthed us with restless travel. A bitter taste soaks our pallets as itโs not from our rations but the thought of our rival pursuing victory. The sky is limpid blue today but by this time tomorrow it will be plagued with triumphant gun smoke.
Ma and Pa
Today we defend our homeland.Enemy troops have rallied their forces in hopes to defeat.We continue to make strides in preparations to outlast the opposition.Strength in numbers is given but strength in battle is grit. The man who gives up first is also the man who quits

Dearest,
Our campaign continues in the lone star state. Progression to Dallas was nothing shy of a wet and wild ride as one of our wagons took on water during the ride through bands of relentless volley. The Union awakens to a new day and Houston awaits our arrival upon evening.
We unpacked the chuck wagon in Oklahoma City at the Golden Corral. Good people here, generous portions. We will be out of Cherokee Nation by sunset.
#PickAxeTakeNames
Today we protect our home! When you come to our place we don't just wait around for you to show up we meet you out front! The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job and the determination to make it happen!

We circled our wagon train up in Clovis, NM. Itโs a dry heat out in these parts, with many a dust devil along the trail. We were greeted by some strange animals during our first evening here. My guess is they arenโt native to the region, possibly imported.
Beloved
On the road again.Rambling eastbound navigating the harvested corn belt a storm brews on the horizon. Clear eyes and full hearts we invade new territory. Stopping along the way people know who we are coming for. Some call us a contraband caravan as we are not welcome here
Countrymen,
We bid farewell once more whilst we journey to a land of familiarity. A Lewis and Clark expedition guides us to appropriate battle terrain as we follow the river upstream generously until a flock is spotted. Tonight we feast on rations tomorrow we feast on cardinal.
Wishing a happy birthday to a hard working coach, keeping our clothes clean and our line backers sharp. This young man was born in the land of 10,000 lakes and raised by the efforts of villagers in Elk River. Coach Brummer, we are proud to have as one of our leaders. Have a day.
Kindred
Our last night of slumber protruded dreams of victory, now we endure with patience as sunset approaches. Like desperados waiting for a train, pacing, with hands on our holsters, fury in our eyes. A train hot on the rails bound for destruction will soon be bound for glory.

Family, Friends...Beloved,
A brisk fall morning greets us. Preparations for battle commence and we rally for one more victory. A well respected enemy encroaches home territory but does not impose defeat as we know the parameters of our battlefield far greater than the dark horse.

Dearest,
While battle plans consummate, our travel to the Lindenwood forest becomes a mere arbitrary prelimination. The adversary is one of a mystery as our diligence to scouting has been limited. However the vitality of success is what keeps our trousers snug in the mornings.
Itโs officially the first day of summer lifting๐๐๐ผ๐ค time to get 1% better every day for 3 months straight

THAT'S AN OPENING DAY WINNER!
After a herculean effort to clear the field yesterday and this morning, the Miners post a stellar performance to open the season behind six innings from Dylan Mollett and a homerun from Aaron Berkhoff!
