Okawville 2028 C Ayden Foley has gotten stronger & continues to improve as a rebounder. Intriguing with his shot blocking using his length. Stretched floor for a three as well

Alleluia!!!!!!

[Pascal Najadi (USSF)🇺🇸 @JfkPascalNajadX]

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump TERMINATED the Obama-era mandate that pushed auto start-stop systems into vehicles.

You know the one.
You stop at a red light.
Your engine shuts off.
Every. Single. Time.

Doesn’t matter if you hate it.
Doesn’t matter if it wears down the starter.
Doesn’t matter if you have to turn it off manually every time you start the car.

It was forced in the name of “efficiency.”

Trump just ended it.

No more government telling automakers how to design your engine.
No more being annoyed at every stoplight.
Build better cars. Let consumers choose.

Common sense is back.

How much of your hard earned money can Perfect Game get?

The STAY TO PLAY model is disgraceful and I think people deserve the truth!

Here is the actual Perfect Game lodging policy!

PERFECT GAME TOURNAMENT LODGING POLICY:
Stay-to-Play Requirement
This event is designated as a Stay-to-Play tournament. Perfect Game works closely with the local lodging community in our host cities to provide competitive rates, secure sufficient room inventory, and ensure a high-quality experience for all attending teams.

WHO MUST COMPLY
Teams traveling more than 75 miles from the primary host venue are required to secure hotel accommodations through Perfect Game's official lodging platform, EventConnect, or pay the designated Hotel Waiver Fee.

This policy ensures every team meets the lodging compliance minimum while maintaining flexibility in how requirements are met.
LODGING REQUIREMENTS
Each traveling team must reserve an average of eight (8) rooms per night for the duration of the tournament.
The required total room nights are calculated as follows:
8 rooms × (number of tournament days − 1) = total required room nights
*For event durations longer than 7 days, the max number of required room nights is 48.
Tournament Length Required Room Nights
7-day event 48 room nights
6-day event 40 room nights
5-day event 32 room nights
4-day event 24 room nights
3-day event 16 room nights
2-day event 8 room nights
Teams may choose to pay a Hotel Waiver Fee in lieu of booking through the Perfect Game lodging platform. By paying this fee, teams are permitted to make their own hotel arrangements independently.

Hotel Waiver Fee formula: (number of tournament days − 1) × $200
Note: The Hotel Waiver Fee will be added to the team’s shopping cart 14 days prior to the tournament start date.
BOOKING DEADLINE
Deadline
All required room nights must be reserved no later than 14 days prior to the first day of the tournament.
Teams that do not meet the minimum room night requirement by the deadline will be responsible for payment of the Hotel Waiver Fee.

If a team is found to be non-compliant after being scheduled, the team may be deemed ineligible for future Perfect Game events until the waiver fee is resolved.
LOCAL TEAMS
Teams located within 75 miles of the host venue are considered local and are exempt from the Stay-to-Play requirement.
BOOKING PROCESS
Upon acceptance into the tournament, each team representative will receive a custom EventConnect booking link via email.
Use the link for 24-hour access to official Perfect Game lodging partners. Room nights booked through EventConnect are tracked automatically and will appear on your team’s Perfect Game Management page under the HOTELS section.
Teams can block, share, and book rooms together at the same property, or families may book separately at different EventConnect hotels that best meet their needs.
Note: There is no cost to hold a block of rooms; however, room blocks can only be held for up to 10 days before they automatically expire.
THIRD-PARTY BOOKING NOTICE
Reservations made outside the EventConnect system (e.g., directly with hotels or via third-party sites such as https://t.co/kvbCqZ4gRw, Expedia, or Hotwire) will not count toward your team’s required room night total.

[Michael Stroup 🏴‍☠️🌊 @CoachStroup]

Everybody wants discipline… until discipline gets loud.
Everybody wants toughness… until toughness gets uncomfortable.

Hard coaching isn’t abuse.
Hard coaching is correction.
Hard coaching is standards.
Hard coaching is loving a kid enough not to let him stay average.

If a coach is demanding effort, detail, toughness, and accountability bothers you… that probably says more about today’s culture than it does the coach.

Didn't drive her car at an ICE agent.

Didn't try to obstruct an ICE operation.

Was just walking down the street when an illegal alien killed her in cold blood.

And Democrats do not care.
