We lost a one of a kind guy in Coach Shawn Johnson. Our thoughts are with his family and Coach Tyler Johnson, along with the countless families he impacted through baseball. Rest in peace, Coach. ⚾️💔
Incredible perspective on handling players in the portal era. Troy’s head baseball coach Skylar Meade might be the breakout star of the College World Series. Awesome stuff here via @Theinsiders
Again, congratulations to Trinity’s players, coaches, families, and supporters on a remarkable achievement. They earned their title. The conversation now should be whether the system itself needs to evolve.
Congratulations to Trinity High School on an outstanding season and a well-deserved KHSAA State Championship. The players and coaching staff earned every bit of their success, and they should be celebrated for what they accomplished.

Kentucky has too much talent and too many quality programs for a state final to feel this lopsided. The KHSAA should continue evaluating ways to ensure competitive balance while preserving the integrity of high school athletics.
COACHES: When you’re on your deathbed you’re going to be surrounded by people, not trophies.
Winning is important.
It will never stop being important.
But how you treat people along the way will always be more important.

Underrated coaching truth:
The best coaches aren’t obsessed with talent.
They’re obsessed with effort.
With attitude.
With toughness.
Because when it gets hard,
that’s what still shows up.

Team USA is about to miss bracket play. Bryce Harper’s dad and Alex Bregman’s dads are in the parking lot forming a new team since their kids are on the bench tonight.
Tague Davis has homered six times in the past five games.
In the first three innings today against Marshall, Davis has an RBI single, a grand slam, and a three-run home run.
In the first 17 games of the season, Davis has 11 home runs and 39 RBIs. Unreal.

Long and lean with good levers. Advanced movements on the infield, topped at 76 across the infield. Clean mover in the box with elite bat to ball skill. One of the top 2030 bats we’ve seen this winter heading into Rising Stars next month. Long term high follow.
