What a year. What a ride. ❤️

Thank you, seniors, for everything you have done. We ended the regular season as the inaugural ABA Regular Season Conference Champions, but we’re not done yet. The best is yet to come.

A high school shortstop went from 86-88 MPH to touching 96 MPH in-season. In under a year... 🤯

Here's how: ⬇️

@DanielHead925 Daniel Head came to Tread the summer after his junior year as a primary shortstop trying to commit to pitching full-time. 📈

He had already touched 90, but was mostly sitting 86 to 88.

Daniel Head arrived at Tread the summer after his junior year of high school as a primary shortstop, sitting 86 to 88 mph.

Less than a year later, he's touching 96 mph on the mound and is committed to @MercerBaseball ✍️

Performance coach Vinny Riggio breaks down exactly how that happened, from stripping away the checklist mentality @DanielHead925 arrived with, to building effective reps through constraint-based throwing, to the mocap findings that unlocked his fall training.

This is what development can look like when you let athletes be athletes.

95 MPH High School Mechanics 🦾

@DanielHead925 is a high school senior committed to @MercerBaseball

He came to Tread as a shortstop who was able to touch 90 mph with sheer athleticism. The raw talent was obviously there. 

Now he's throwing 95 mph in bullpens. 📈

Full case study about his velo jump coming soon. 🎥
