As a kid it was always my life long dream to do two things 1. Become a Big Leaguer and 2. Meet my childhood hero Thank you Mr. Ryan for being the symbol of what a good person should be. Thank you Nolan for having a great impact in my life both on and off the field.
@PrepSportsPlus@SGVNSports@ChemicalAT@chriscfore@coachmark_48@Coach_Maxie626 Agreed all 3 should be honored . Although I never met them, Coach Zane and Pagone made a lasting impact through the stories from former players and students. Principal Gorrell’s legacy is equally compelling and reaches far beyond his role as the school’s first principal.
"Don't be like me. God gave me a body, ability to play baseball...it was just wasted. I was given so much." Absolutely heartbreaking to hear Mickey Mantle talk about himself like this

USC Trojans Baseball coming to the San Gabriel Valley in October. High School Prospect Camp….. this will fill fast!!! All you recruits come on out and show your skills on front of our staff!!!
RPI be damned, the case for the Trojans is strong ✌️
All this, while shifting between 3 “home” sites, having no on campus practice field and staying in hotels every weekend. If the committee wants one of the hottest and most resilient squads in the country, look no further. #FightOn
College Freshman
1. Pick the right kids on the team to hang around
2. DO NOT get involved with the party crowd
3. Get to sleep at a reasonable time every night
4. Don't go home until Thanksgiving if school isn't in your hometown/area (plant roots and make new friends)
5. Do more than expected, be engaged and earn respect with work ethic and maturity
Remember, nobody cares what you did in HS/Travel Ball, if you were drafted or who scouted you. You're starting over. You have to earn respect.
