Shawn Slade (‘26, IA) a hover steps into a smooth LH swing for a double up the middle. Laces this one with great barrel control. Lower half supply’s the power here.

Shawn Slade (‘26, IA) LHH that elevates this one for a double. Tall swing profile that stays back and hits it to LF. Does a great job lifting this one.

@PrepBaseballIA @KCC_BSB @prepbaseball @PBRobbyMagic @HagemanParker I've been saying nearly the same thing to my guys on Northstars this summer/fall. As a team of just CF/Waterloo area guys we are not here for the wins, we're here to face top talent to better ourselves and develop more during the off-season. (Small fish, big pond). Thanks guys

Things you can control in games:
• Effort
• Attitude
• Self-talk
• Body language
• Attention
• Execution

Things you can’t control in games:
• Winning
• Your opponent
• Refs
• Fans
• Weather
• The past/future

To play your best, focus only on what you can control.

Upside look at 2026 Caleb Peters on the mound for @IATravelBsbl.

@Teacherman1986 @McMainsDmac Sure , 2 different swings, but point is someone is in the batters circle timing the pitcher. I see too many kids even in HS that have no approach, no timing. Good swing, bad swing all the same if you can't figure out when to start.

[Derin McMains @McMainsDmac]

The on-deck circle is for timing.

Enter Exhibit A: Corbin Carroll

You're welcome baseball coaches.

Congrats Colin. What a catch for the hawks. Those white tops are fire #raisethebar

[sladesix @slade6ix]

@ParkSanchez15 Dash been a great pitcher since he was just a little guy! He's a 🤓 when it comes to pitching. Can't wait to see him work next season.

[Cedar Falls High School Baseball @cfbaseball20]

What a fun moment for Colin and our team. What a celebration afterwards.
