boys!
The last 24-36 hours have been very difficult to deal with. Seeing the pain on our guys faces and not knowing what to say was the toughest. It’s taking me some time to give my thoughts on our

team that meant so much to so many people.
Congrats to all of our future

As someone who has coached hitting for the last 10 years, I am so sick and tired of hearing that coaches are teaching a “launch angle swing”
THE LAUNCH ANGLE SWING IS NOT A SWING! Launch angle is a metric in how the ball is coming off the bat. It can either be good or bad!

Had the pleasure to watch two of the best high school games I have seen since being on the road recruiting. There was passion, clutch performances, guys responding to adversity, and fans on the edge of their seats. A refreshing reminder of how the game is to be played!

Thankful to work with you everyday!
No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game - but how? This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome ... which suddenly seems so irrelevant.

@NCAA
Division I Council has approved a measure to turn all volunteer positions in baseball and softball (and in all sports) into a full-time coaching position without recruiting constraints. Volunteers will officially become full-time coaches on July 1, 2023.

Truly a one of a kind human who thinks of everyone else before herself.
@segjormand
is the 🐐 and has big things ahead for her!
She has her eyes on a career in MLB, and with recent news of Kim Ng's hiring by the Florida Marlins as the first female GM in the big leagues, JMU baseball student manager Samantha Gjormand has the confidence to walk through open doors of opportunity.
The NCAA Baseball Rules Committee proposed some changes on Friday.
* No more celebratory props on the field in 2023
* Conferences/coaches can agree to put a runner on second base in extra innings
* Several action clock changes in-game
Today's game will mark John Shifflett's 800th career game as an Athletic Trainer and we can't thank him enough for all the hard work and dedication he gives to our student-athletes on a daily basis. Thank you Shiff for all that you do!

Kendrick loves tee and is his favorite thing to do🤔
Bregman doesn’t use tee and likes overhand flips 🤔
Both successful and both great players. Find your routine and what works for you!
