Chris Barron coached his last baseball game tonight. An assistant under Tony Mills for two decades. He is the new AD for Liberty.

Took time postgame to hug every player.

Classy

🚨 Parents of High School Football Recruits

One of the biggest mistakes I see in recruiting is when parents try to take over the process instead of supporting it

College coaches are evaluating much more than film, statistics, and athletic ability. They are evaluating how a prospect communicates, handles adversity, interacts with others, and whether the family will be a positive fit within the program

Over the years, I have seen talented players miss opportunities because of poor communication, unrealistic expectations, social media issues, constant parental involvement, or simply a lack of understanding of how recruiting actually works

Some of the biggest mistakes parents make:

🔹 Speaking for their son during the recruiting process

🔹 Contacting coaches excessively

🔹 Treating camp invites as scholarship offers

🔹 Inflating height, weight, or testing numbers

🔹 Comparing their son to other recruits

🔹 Focusing too much on rankings and social media attention

🔹 Ignoring academic requirements

🔹 Chasing every camp without a recruiting plan

🔹 Becoming overly focused on NIL or one specific level of football

🔹 Creating unnecessary drama with coaches, programs, or teammates

A camp invite is not an offer. Rankings do not determine a player’s future. More camps do not automatically lead to more opportunities. And playing at the highest level possible is not always the same as finding the right fit

The best recruiting families:

✅ Allow their son to take ownership of the process

✅ Communicate professionally and respectfully

✅ Focus on academics as much as football

✅ Stay realistic about recruiting opportunities

✅ Trust the evaluation process

✅ Keep the focus on long term development and fit

Parents should focus on helping their son become the best student, athlete, and young man possible. Be supportive, be realistic, trust the process, and allow your son to take ownership of his recruitment

The families that navigate recruiting the best are usually the ones who stay humble, stay professional, and understand that recruiting is about finding the right fit, not winning a popularity contest

🏈 At the end of the day, the goal is not to win recruiting.

It is to help your son find the right school, earn a degree, continue playing football, and create opportunities that will benefit him long after his playing days are over

Just as Liberty head coach Tony Mills says, "that feels good."

Patriots win a second Central Section Division I title in three seasons and makes it five consecutive for the South Yosemite River League.

Put it down on your calendar. July 11. Edison's Battle at the Beach seven on seven passing tournament. Great lineup of teams as always.

Today is about honoring those that went to defend our freedoms and didn’t return home.

The ultimate sacrifice.

[Trevor Horn @trevhorn]

Oregon baseball commit Gavin Williams has made the most of this shorten junior season for Liberty.

After a sit-out period after transferring from Garces, Williams has 12 homers in just 60 at-bats, including two 3-run shots in the past two playoff games.

Here's a stat line for ya.

@BWitcher23 was 2-2 with a game-winning 3-run homer, hit twice, walked once, scored four runs in five plate appearances, threw a runner out at third behind the plate in the first and pitched a scoreless seventh for the win for Liberty.

Unicorn status.
