Due to circumstances out of my control my family and I have decided that it is best to reopen my recruitment at this time. Thank you to all the coaches at Northwestern for believing in me and offering me the opportunity.
Threw 1st bullpen today at higher intensity. Not hitting full depth yet, but FB sat 88-89. Was able to land all pitches at 5'5"-5'7". FB 19" vertical and -7.6" horizontal with 88-100% spin efficiency.

I started throwing Bullpens recently ramping up for spring. I feel I’m at 85% intensity. I didn’t know how to track intensity against where I might be later in the year until I saw this chart posted the other day by

Speed didn’t come early for me like my little bro
@QuincyBright12
who’s a phenom (95 mph at 15). 2 years ago I was throwing 81. Last year 86. I saw this board and said I would be on it. I chipped away with the help of coach

Childhood advice from my dad: “Don’t ever let anyone tell you there’s something you can’t do or achieve. Find the right people that can help, create a sensible plan, work hard at it consistently and show it is in fact possible.”
Happy to recognize and celebrate Alex Grant's recent signing with Vanderbilt! Alex has accomplished much in his two years at Avon Old Farms. As a student, he is high achieving, and as an athlete his development has been outstanding.
Grateful to announce my commitment to Vanderbilt University! Thank you, NxtLvL Beast, Clubhouse Ct, & Ohio Warhawks especially Coach Eddie, Coach Pedro, Mike Porzio, Coach Slush, Coach Bill and Coach steve and to coach Corbin and Coach Baxter for this oppurtunity

Good advice Josh. Thanks! The biggest different for me moving to top D1 spots were: 1). Get the right pitching coach with a proven history. Train with him once per week (took me 3 hours of driving round trip) Reinforce and review lessons throughout the week. If my coach Mike says
