No one more deserving to lead the LCA program than @Oakley_Watkins! Leader of men, offensive wizard but most importantly, a great husband, father and friend! I’m blessed to have been apart of the journey for the past 10 years!

This is what it’s all about! @Coach_Mingione is a true leader of men! If I had a son who played baseball, he would be the only coach I would want him to play for!! #WeAreUK
