Did @HailStateBB win the natty by worrying about radar guns, launch angle, exit velo or bat flips?
Or by throwing strikes, making NO errors, taking extra bases, and hitting with two strikes?

Our hearts are heavy this morning as we remember Brady James.
Brady was always the life of the party and dugout, carrying a smile everywhere he went…that was contagious to all around him.
He was a heck of a ball player, but an even better friend and brother.
RIP Brady James

Hitters can learn a ton from Tanner Allen & Luke Hancock, but 1 of the biggest is positive body language! Biggest game of their careers, both take called strikes (on terrible calls). Neither complain or look at ump, simply keep playin the game! Later, both contribute huge hits..

Contrary to popular belief, you do not have to play Perfect Game every weekend to get exposure and college offers. PG has fantastic events, but it’s not the only route to a college offer 💯

It is with heavy hearts this morning that we pass along the passing of Sean Law.
Sean is the father of asst. coach & former player, DJ Law.
Sean was a tremendous supporter of Post 70 & arguably the biggest fan we had. He will be missed dearly by all of the Post 70 family!

No one has ever said “he’s a good hitter, but strikes out a lot” or “he’s a good pitcher, but walks a lot of people”

Be a great teammate!
The moment your playing career ends, so does your velo numbers, offer lists, 60 times, etc.

Recruiting advice 101:
Understand your talent level, get involved with organizations that are more concerned with seeing you succeed over making a $, and find a team with connections to college coaches.
Attending every showcase and playing on a $2,000.00 travel team isn’t it!

Rarely do coaches take time in the present to appreciate the team they’ve built. The organization can’t exist without great players. Our 17U & 19U teams are filled w/ fantastic players & parents. It humbles us every summer to be trusted with developing players on & off the field!
