Coaching prowess & success isn't rooted in:
⚾️How many wins you can get
⚾️How many championships you win
⚾️How many trophies you collect
Yes W's & championships are goals, but ultimate coaching success is rooted in your ability to influence & help mold lives!

It’s been an absolute HONOR to have gotten to Coach the @USAPrimeNat 15U National Team this Summer! Too many things to say in a tweet so please read! Love my guys! #WeAintDoneYet#BeADawg#FOUR#Shavashina

Congratulations @kadenbcool on signing his NLI today to play for @KSUOwlsBaseball Have seen you grow & flourish in this program & it’s only fitting my boy is in this picture. He’s seen you grow as well & wouldn’t miss this moment! Proud of you buddy! @athletics_creek@TROliverEDU
As I get older in coaching I realize more how important being a transformational coach as vs transactional is. Awesome to see my son who’s grown up so much at Sandy Creek next to another guy who grew up at the Creek! Thanks JL for taking the time to take a shot with your buddy!
Was truly an HONOR to get to Coach the Detroit Tigers Scout Team this week! An experience I’ll never forget! Surrounded by some of the greatest in the Nation & lots of the Tigers Staff was Amazing! Pictures To Follow!
It is with a sad heart that I let everyone know that the baseball program at Sandy Creek will be transitioning into the new Water Polo Team. Conditioning will start tomorrow with treading water in what was right field.
“God sends his hardest challenges to his toughest soldiers “ Rawlings Andrew Pou : Born 12/9/18 at 6:31am. Gone from this world, watches over our family from another! Mom, Dad, Gray, and Letty love you buddy! Will be together again!
This is not an individual award. This comes from hard work done by parents, student athletes, & fellow coaches.The past two years we have been building these programs & it will continue to rise. The buzz around the community about our programs is REAL & we can’t wait to show it!
Must be getting up there in age! 175 baseball wins and 100 softball wins tonight! Loved having the whole crew there!! Also a big thank you to players and coaches past and present for letting me be a small part of this journey!! Time to keep grinding! @gdcbaseball@gadcsoftball
Proud of our guys this season! Can’t listen to the outside noise. Just have to play the next pitch! Program has come a long way! #Pats#UnfinishedBusiness#ThickSkin
2021 LHP/OF Jacob Bodkin throwing 87.2 mph 🔥🔥🔥this evening! Kid is starting to gain some interest here lately! Upper 80’s from the left side is legit! @SCPATS_BASEBALL#TheCreekIsBack#StudsInEveryClass
Could not be happier for my guys tonight. They took down a very solid Northgate squad 6-2. Too many team positives to mention one or two names! So I’ll send a shoutout to our entire program & how proud I am to coach you guys!Continue to press on boys! @FayetteSports@CowetaScore
Love the Emotion our guys play with! We play in a VERY top heavy region w/ all teams being ranked in the state! Played 3 great games this week taking down Redan in a slug fest & dropping a nail biter to GAC. Guys stepping up to pitch who aren’t pitchers but do it for their team!
Was a breath of fresh air to get out and see these Seniors today. They didn’t get to wear the new black jerseys we got this year so we decided to bring the jerseys to them to wear in the graduation parade on Saturday! Just a small thing we could do for all they have done for us!
I let this digest for a few days. My heart is breaking for my players and all their hard work they’ve put in to turn our program around. With that said it is NOBODY fault this is happening. Also with that said, NOBODY should be punished by it. #WillAlwaysFightForMyGuys
A BIG congratulations to our SR RHP and @YHC_Softball commit Kaliyah Smith for recording her 500th career strikeout tonight vs Marist! What an amazing @SandyCreekHSSo1 Lady Patriot you have been! So proud of you girl! #StillNotDone#Pats #🔥🔥
One of the greatest moments I’ve ever seen on a baseball field! SR Dylan Wyckoff is the epitome of what you want as a player, teammate ,and person! His teammates and coaches love him and it shows by their support after his Grand Slam!! Way to go bud! #NotEnoughHugsToGoAround
An incredible start to an incredible experience! Have the HONOR of coaching the Detroit Tigers Scout Team in Jupiter, FL this week. Spent the day getting a workout in at the Tigers Spring Training Complex in Lakeland! @USAPrimeNat#DetroitTigers
Big Announcement from our Family!! There’s about to be a tiebreaker. One of them will be outnumbered. Mom and Dad will be outnumbered regardless! We are excited to add to our family!! #Blessed#May2019Not2018
Not enough words in the world can sum up what this young man means to @SCPATS_BASEBALL ,his family, & my own. It’s rare 1 of your greatest players ever is also the greatest teammate. @BaseballUGA is getting a stud ballplayer & better person! Love ya @jtllittle & congratulations
Honored to help coach the Northwest SR All State Players today in Macon! A great group of young men,very talented ball players, & coached with two of the best! @CoachBennett24@coachduff1206 Got to coach one of mine one last time, Glenn Green! 2IP 5Ks! @GaDugoutPreview

DBA from last night! You can see they don’t know what’s coming & hit in various game like scenarios! Challenge in practice to slow games! It’s ok for guys to leave practice after failing. We see it daily! HITTING IS HARD. We work tees & toss but we challenge at very high levels!
Hard Work and a Grueling Non Region Schedule has paid off for the @SCPATS_BASEBALL squad!Big region win tonight vs Chapel Hill 5-2! SR Tyler Peavy goes 5IP 1R. SO Glenn Green with the 2 inning save!Boys playing very strong at the end of the year! #TheCreekIsRising@FayetteSports

I’ve seen a lot of talk about how much people miss their field, their program, playing games, etc. What I miss most are my players. I did Varsity today. Will do JV and C Team later. Team Challenge! What do you miss? @SCPATS_BASEBALL#WhatDoYouMissChallenge
HUGE shoutout to the entire Sandy Creek family and the town of Tyrone today! The love you all showed for these Patriots today was second to none! @TROliverEDU@athletics_creek

Gotta love Playoff Baseball!! So much rides on each pitch, swing, etc. Patriots come away with a 2 game sweep (7-4,2-1)of an extremely talented and well coached Oconee County squad! On to the Sweet 16! Always good to be playing in May! #Pats#UnfinishedBusiness

Had a coach in Georgia tell me once that if you’re playing in May you’re doing something right. Here we are Patriots! May baseball is special! Sweet 16 matchup at Ringgold! Should be fun! #Pats#UnfinishedBusiness
SR OF John Marant is up first! Please blast these out ! @SCPATS_BASEBALL@SCHS_Patriots@FayetteSports It’s tough enough they have lost their season. Let’s Atleast let people see what they have to say & appreciate the time they put in! These videos will be in 2 parts. Part 1!

Appreciate the coaches you have! They spend more time with you, your kids, & your program than they do their families! So much goes unseen! Coaches don’t do it for the money they do it for the moments! Don’t take them for granted! To my coaching friends: you’re appreciated! #MTYK
2022 RHP Hunter Maddox showing off a strong arsenal of pitches this weekend! Sat 80-82 with some nasty change and breakers mixed in! Keep grinding kid! @SCPATS_BASEBALL#Pats#StudsInEveryClass
Appreciate the coaches that reached out & know the difficulties of rebuilding a program & what it takes. Also glad I could give a laugh to those who think defending my players & program is weird. There’s a reason why you can stay a critic and I’ll lead my program. #LoveMyPlayers
Great first day!! Enjoyed seeing so many guys that are passionate about @SCPATS_BASEBALL The future is bright with this program! Can’t wait to see what it will become!!
