Athletes shouldn’t have to choose between sports.
It’s on ADs and coaches to work together, communicate expectations, and create an environment where students can compete in multiple sports while still receiving the commitment and development each individual program demands.
One of the worst trends happening in high school athletics currently is coaches telling players not to play multiple sports. It creates an athletic department where coaches don’t work together, terrible culture, and kids are burnt out by year 2 from playing one sport year-round.

"The "Philadelphia Inquirer" found dangerous chemicals in the astroturf of the now-demolished Veterans Stadium.
Six Phillies who played on that turf, Tug McGraw, Darren Daulton, John Vukovich, John Oates, Ken Brett, and David West have died of a rare and aggressive brain cancer. The six players all died in their 40's or 50's, roughly three times the rate of the average adult population.
Even more alarming was their mutual diagnosis of glioblastoma.
The Phillies sold pieces of turf in sealed 4 x 4" bags.
The "Inquirer" purchased four of those on eBay.
Samples analyzed by two separate labs found 16 types of dangerous chemicals in the turf.
They are referred to as “forever chemicals” because they don’t break down and can last in the human body for years.
The US federal government estimates that 12,000 artificial turf fields containing PFAS or “forever chemicals” exist in USA.

And still no updates on this story!!!
Clemson baseball coach Erik Bakich says he’s going back to Year 1 “culture building” this offseason. Bakich: “Zero nonsense. No BS. Nobody’s wearing their own custom cleats and belts. This is Clemson, this is how we’re doing it and that’s it”
Correct
Especially with your buddies you have grown up playing with.
Too many kids these days have no core memories of HS sports bc they chased false promises

Feeling great with the wood lately. Grateful to still play a kids game at a high level, even better doing it with the Sharks. @JucoPipeline@Juco_Spotlight@ILMSharks@Btuck16
Middle America families stuck in the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time that is travel baseball.
Baseball needs Legion Ball played at high school fields in t-shirts and gray pants more than ever right now.
WF had 20 HR in 18 ACC games coming into the weekend. Then hit 11 in 2 games (plus 5 on Tues). 47 hits and 50 runs in 3 games. State switched to hand signals and they hit 2 HR, 9 hits, 5 runs (10 innings). FWIW, I don't think there's anything there but the numbers are noteworthy
“We need to be able to hit the ball through the middle of the field and the other way, lower, with shorter swings.”
But coach! My private instructor who I pay $200 a week says my swing looks great idk why I’m batting .150!!
"It's a deep-rooted thing, we're off and this will never happen again"
Blunt honesty from Jay Johnson about some of the things plaguing the #LSU offense this year.
Says he made mistakes in roster construction with his team this year.
