on his commitment to Walsh University! He has been one of the best and most consistent pitchers to come through the Diamond Boys organization and we are extremely proud to see all of his hard work and dedication pay off!
Another decade of Diamond Boys Baseball in the books. I want to thank all the Parents and Players and coaches and my family for letting me live the dream, especially my wife Pam for standing by my side through the last 23 years! Happy New Year everyone!
This is what makes this organization and the people in it amazing. One of our coaches moms was diagnosed with leukemia. Our other team (who they played) decided to so something special after the game. Parents,coaches, players, this is more important than any win or loss. FAMILY๐
