You don't see this every day. 👀 South Walton (FL) pulls off the SUICIDE SQUEEZE to win the Florida 3A State Baseball Championship in walk-off fashion over North Broward Prep. ⚾🔥

If you don’t write a goal down, it’s not a goal - it’s a wish.
Clarity creates accountability.
Accountability drives action.
Action, repeated daily, is what leads to results.

John Calipari is right on this — allow one player transfer, after that, you have to sit out a year to transfer. We have guys playing for four different teams in four years. It’s beyond ridiculous and bad for the sport:

[Zak Blair @coachzblair10]

Players: Be a multi-sport athlete all you want but if you really want to be successful in the game of baseball you better be swinging the bat & working on your craft before/after your current in-season sport.

Baseball isn't a game you can set down for an extended period of time & be the best. 👊🏼

Give your kids responsibilities as soon as possible

A Harvard Study found that kids who are given responsibilities around ages 3-4yrs:

- Do better in school
- Have stronger relationships
- Are more likely to achieve career goals
- Report a higher level of satisfaction in life

Being given responsibilities also teaches them life skills, increases self esteem & builds their self-belief

Start early & do it often for best results

The first four-time #OhioState captain will also become the first @milton_hoops player to have his jersey retired. Here's why Bruce Thornton's alma mater is honoring him next week and what kind of legacy coach @WhitehartHoops said he left behind: https://t.co/TX1ULMr8pH

All this talk about Chris Henry Jr has me reflecting on this story about his Dad & his Grandma's decision to donate his organs. I was a big fan of his, & I've watched this video a lot throughout the yrs. We were born 2 days apart. Grab a tissue. RIP Slim. #WVU #Bengals #GiveLife

How throwing a frisbee helps groom a proper bat path. To throw the frisbee down the cage to the back of the net you have to have good DIRECTION & path towards the middle. If you fly open it will hit either side of the net. We want large margin of error through the middle of the field.

We will be having 2 clinics in December at Hitters U! DM us to sign up or to join our online baseball academy/community @HittersUniv

WHIFFLE BALL BAT THROWS— GREAT DRILL FOR YOUNG PLAYERS… when working with young players at Hitters U we like to use drills with external focuses to get the players to understand & feel the proper way of moving without explaining it to them. These drills naturally get you to the place you need to be or you won’t be able to throw the whiffle bat through the middle. Fly open it will go in foul territory, have a big upper cut the bat will hit the ceiling. @HittersUniv

ONE HANDED BUNTING DRILL
A plus drill for developing barrel control & visually connecting the eyes & the head of the bat. Especially good for base hit bunters.

Okay, that’s an electric entrance.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES! Senate Leader John Thune just went BERSERK on Democrats. I have NEVER heard him like this.

"WE'VE TRIED TO DO THAT 13 TIMES! You voted NO, 13 TIMES!" *Looking at Dems*

"OH, 'there MIGHT BE SOME CONSEQUENCES!' 'There are people running out of money!'"

"SNAP recipients shouldn't go without FOOD. People should be getting PAID."

"We're 29 days in! At some point, the government RUNS OUT OF MONEY. 13 TIMES. We voted to fund SNAP. WIC."

"My aching BACK! You FINALLY realized this thing has CONSEQUENCES!"

Go off, Leader Thune!! 🔥🔥🔥

They just kept playing.
