@Doc_W_LAT @GarrettxKenny @Jr1Brandon @RLC550 @B_Clark83 Love it! We’ll start our fall sport nominations in October after our big reveal video next week - I think this has a true chance to take Best Play!!! 🔥🔥🔥

2023’ WR @Jr1Brandon makes crazy plays on offense.. But this one handed catch & punt to pin them on their own 1yd line is just insane 🤯 #STILLFamily ⚪️🔵

Fear of giving 100%. It’s scary to face the reality of your current abilities. Telling yourself you have more in the tank while holding back is a quick way to mediocrity. It’s better to give your all and discover your weaknesses than to hold back and hide from your potential.

Your at-bat starts before you ever step foot in the batter’s box. ⚾️💯

I still get chills watching President George W. Bush throw out the first pitch post 9/11

Without relationship, there is no true alignment. There is only compliance. Leaders who connect build committed teams who unlock their potential.

Leaders find good in the bad, meaning in the mundane, opportunity in the frustration, learning in the setbacks. Perspective is everything.

Change of direction work got a little competitive last week 💪🏻🔥🎉 Team concepts start today if weather allows! Let’s go!!! #GRIT #softballfamily

Movin with posture with @AggieSoftball 😎

Having fun and getting creative through the heat restrictions - Our ladies put in a great tennis ball/wall session yesterday and then pushed hard in the weight room!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 #ACE #GRIT #leadbyinfluence

If you choose a team sport, and your desire for individual success is greater than your desire for your team’s success, your journey will be filled with a lot of frustration. Winning on a team is fueled by everyone’s sacrifice.

Start hanging out with people who fit the future you want, not the people you who made you complacent.

Farmers don't dig up their seeds to see if they are growing. They keep doing the work, preparing for the harvest. Growth takes time. Building culture takes time. Getting better takes time. Be patient, be persistent, do the work, focus on your habits, be ready for the harvest.

@BrewerSoftball This group is going to be special!!!

Senior teams drafted & revealed ✅ Dress up day w/team colors ✅ Competitions for PRIDE Points ✅ AMAZING effort & energy! ✅✅✅ Well done ladies. Well done. #softballfamily #ACE

The best hitters make mistakes during at bats.. The average hitters make mistakes during at bats.. The best hitter's mistakes are typically aggressive + have conviction The average hitter's mistakes are typically passive + have hesitancy TRAIN ACCORDINGLY @BaseballIQ_App

Negative comments tend to linger 7x longer than positive comments. There’s a time for challenge, for correction, for critique. Without enough support and encouragement, people will feel overwhelmed and shut down. Leaders: be mindful of the power of your words.

Your culture is a result of the work you put into it. Your performance is a result of the work you put into it. Your leadership is a result of the work you put into it. Your mindset is a result of the work you put into it. Don't hope for it, create it. Do the work.

Finished the week strong - Lots of personal bests during our 1st & 8th period player evaluations!!! 5-10-5, H21B, vertical max and overhand throwing velo all in the books 💪🏻💪🏻 Plus we had an impressive “Suns Out, Gun Out” Friday Dress-up competition! #softballfamily

@Dr_DPorter @BearsGirlsBball Great job ladies!

Proud is an understatement. Our @BearsGirlsBball team shows how much pride they have by helping to clean our student section.

@Brewer_BearsVB @BrewerAthletics 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
