I had the opportunity to share part of my story with the nation on Good Morning America. What happened changed my life forever.
I am incredibly thankful for the first responders, medical teams, family, friends, and community
members who helped me through this time!

As it currently stands, UNCW's budget would have been the third lowest to make it to a Super over the past six seasons.

Possible that Dallas Baptist, Oral Roberts, and Evansville are all in that same territory as well.

[The Seahawk Perch @TheSeahawkPerch]

Seeing the success of some mid-majors this weekend, was curious how @UNCWBaseball stacks up with those that broke through.

Making a Super is the next step, but does our budget align with that expectation?

(Shoutout to @ExtraPointsMB for compiling the budget data!)

@olecaballo You’ve got a pretty good idea of raking in the Colorado org!

[The Seahawk Perch @TheSeahawkPerch]

Tanner Thach is absolutely raking in Fresno.

Hit .381 with 5 HR and 26 RBI in May.

@Jwarner44 Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Only booking the Sweet 16 for now.

Apparently this kid is from Wilmington. Need him in Trask for Dat Bih Gah Night next season.

[The Seahawk Perch @TheSeahawkPerch]

After what we saw from Northeastern last week, thought for certain they were going to find a way to finish that comeback against Arkansas.

Hell of a run. Hopefully we see them for a series next season. 🫡

[Edward Heppner @SkiesofSpringEH]

Glav’s opening statement. Again, it sums it all up. This team was so feisty and gritty and tough and I know everyone from @NUDogOut to the the national media saw it and I could not think of a better display of Husky baseball. Thank you Huskies.

[PEARatings @PEARatings]

we’re all just floating on a big rock in an empty void of space who even cares about hitting a white ball

[Zach Fernandes @Zach_Ferny]

What’d you know about a ONSL game between Oak Island (Go Loggerheads) and the Cape Fear Ghost Crabs?

At Brooks Field nonetheless

[The Seahawk Perch @TheSeahawkPerch]

Not now, sweetie. I'm watching #espnsqueezeplay for 12 straight hours.

[New York Mets @Mets]

Austin Warren! 👏

[Jerry Beach @JerryBeach73]

Austin Warren, lockdown weapon @TheSeahawkPerch. A 1-2-3 10th to strand the automatic runner. He'll probably pitch the third inning in his next appearance, b/c tht's how things go around here.

[The Seahawk Perch @TheSeahawkPerch]

Austin potentially in line for a win, with the Mets and Marlins tied at 7 in the 10th

[Jerry Beach @JerryBeach73]

Austin Warren in for the 10th inning, the Mets got this one @TheSeahawkPerch.

[The Seahawk Perch @TheSeahawkPerch]

Enjoying the baseball, IMO
