We are approaching our moratorium break here in November. You all have put in a lot of work throughout our time together and we have noticed the difference in all of you from week 1. We have push, pulled, yelled, laughed and have had so much fun. Your dedication to your own personal growth as athletes has been impressive.
We have asked you to be curious and open to learning. You all have done exactly what we have asked. As we finish out the 1st half of open gym this November, the one thing we ask of you is to not lose the momentum. Keep moving and working even when we aren't together.
The best athletes are the ones that take it upon themselves to always be learning, working and growing. Over the past 6 weeks we have given you all the tools to be successful. Remember that your efforts are never a waste even on your worst day. Remind yourself that all of your work and dedication will pay off.
This week we put you in team defense and put pressure on your hitting. Things to take away from the week are the following.....
- Start down stay down
- Check your hand while throwing, where should it be and what should it look like?
- Stay off of your heels, you play the ball and don't let the ball play you
- Stay aggressive at the plate
- Keep your chin on the ball (hitting)
- Level, fluid, and aggressive swing!

As we approach week 7 we are going to continue to put you in situations that you will see during tryouts,so its crucial that you show up ready to go every single day. March will be here before we all know it! So lets make the best of our time together and have some fun!
