I've learned that the Livingston Daily won't be replacing the retired Bill Khan anytime soon — if at all — so there will be no local coverage around here of the remainder of the fall season and beyond.
Sucks for the kids.
Living here, may try to pick up some coverage, but ...

Brighton's Drew Henson owns the Michigan record book. 70 career home runs. 290 RBI. 257 hits. 250 runs. 68 doubles. 10 grand slams. 129 walks. And he won 40 games on the mound. Nobody has come within 23 homers of him in almost 30 years. Is this the most unbreakable record in Michigan?

Tommy was the kind of young man every parent hopes their child becomes: kind, generous, caring, & faithful. He started NDP’s FCA to help others grow in faith too. His impact went beyond sports. Our NDP family is better because of him. Our hearts are broken. Prayers for his family

[Kevin Burrell @KevinBurrellMLB]

A message from every professional baseball scout to every high school and college potential baseball prospect.

We're always watching!

EVERY. SINGLE. LOOK.

Pregame work. I/O. BP. Bullpens. Intrasquads. Scrimmages and regular season games. Every one of those is a look — and every look is being written down.

How you run to first base… or do you run to first base. How you move on the field and off the field. How you throw between innings. How you take BP when you think no scout is watching. How you execute pitches in a side session or between innings warming up. How you handle or process a poor at bat. Whether you’re coachable or whether you’re not. And how you treat your teammates.

First one on the field?

Last one off the field?

It’s ALL being noted.

All of it.

Get to the Big Leagues first—before trying to act like those in the TV league. You’re not.

Scouts aren't just evaluating your tools. We're evaluating everything: your habits, your effort, your work ethic, and your character. The player who gives effort every rep stands out — because so few do it consistently.

Newsflash…Scouts don’t care about your “ranking” or what publications write about you (positive or negative). Scouts don’t care how much NIL money you’re getting, or if you’re getting any at all. We’ll make our own evaluations and our own decisions.

Be intentional. Play hard. No matter the setting, the score, the competition or who's in the stands. When you don't, you're only hurting yourself, and you’re to blame.

There is not much you can control in this game — but the one thing you can control is your effort, your work ethic, and your hustle.

Because when you least expect it, someone is ALWAYS watching, and you never know which look is the one that matters.

Winners Win!

Make. Every. Look. Count.

Alliance National Tournaments.
22-for-44 (.500 AVG / .522 OBP) over the last two Alliance events with @IMGLanglois, plus a National Qualifier Title (2027 AFCS berth).

This fall: camps, visits, and finding the right fit — high-level softball at a school where academics come first.
