Building relationships is a choice.

Athletes have more information and resources at their fingertips than ever before.

Information isn’t the missing piece. Connection is.

Be the coach/person/mentor who bridges the gap between ambition and execution.

Build trust. Establish standards. Drive development.

Relationships are earned through your actions, every single day.

#ncaa #d2 I am beyond blessed to announce that I will be continuing my academic and athletic career at Erskine.
First and most importantly, I'd like to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for giving me the opportunity to continue playing baseball. For all the memories that have come with it along this ride, and for being with me every step of the way.
I'd like to thank my family for all they sacrifice and for constantly pushing me to become the best version of myself. Thank you to all the coaches who has helped me as well as everyone who has doubted me. That has pushed me even more. Finally thank you to the Erskine coaching staff for believing in me to play at the next level.
Excited to keep working and growing as a player. Just getting started. @RecruitMETx @7Lakesbaseball @7LSpartanNation @JesseBarfield29 @KitchenSinc24 @FivToolTexas @FiveTool @PG_Scouting @Texas_PG @MarucciEliteTX @FleetBaseball @wheeler_th27

I’m blessed to verbally announce my commitment to Erskine College. First and foremost I’d like to thank the Lord for this blessing of an opportunity. I’d also like to thank my friends and family who have supported me through the highs and lows. Go Fleet!

An absolute titan in our game was lost this week. Growing up close to BR, I got to feel the power of LSU and Coach Bertman quite often, not to mention growing up watching the best rivalry in college baseball against State. A true transformational figure in college baseball. RIP.
