Parents: You have a lifetime to work. But your kids are only young once. Leave work early. Go to that game or performance. You won't regret it.

HS Baseball Players ⚾️ I’ve been around this game a long time, and something’s changed... We’re losing respect for the game. • Chirping after every pitch. • Celebrating routine plays like it’s Game 7 • Trying to embarrass opponents instead of beating them. That’s not toughness. That’s insecurity. 💯 Somewhere along the way, being loud became more important than being good. And the worst part? It’s being allowed. When I came up… • You showed up early. • You handled your business. • You played hard. • You shut your mouth. • If you had something to say… you said it with performance. • And if lines were ever crossed, the players took care of it. The truth: 👇 • Baseball is hard. • You’re going to fail. • You’re going to struggle. • The game doesn’t need more noise… • It needs more respect. • Nobody remembers who chirped. • They remember who showed up. • Who competed. • Who handled adversity. • Who left the game better than they found it. Want to separate yourself? Stop talking. Start working. Respect the game. 💯⚾️

@anymanfitness False. My son doesn’t play AAU and was the 2nd leading scorer on a State Championship team for the largest class schools in Minnesota.

Bad news, dude: If your kid doesn’t play travel/AAU they have no chance of playing varsity in high school. Only exceptions would be small, rural schools without many players to choose from. Any decent sized high school, every kid on varsity plays travel.

Hawks win 10-0 over Wayzata tonight! Kalin Jochum with the complete game shutout…Will Holk with 3 hits…and Owen Strey another HR! Congrats also to Joe Brau on his 1st varsity hit!! Another big thank you to Chick-fil-A for feeding the kids on the bus ride to the game!

Great season @Kalin_Jochum! Keep working hard!

A high school basketball team doesn't have to be full of future D1 players to dominate. It just needs: - Seven kids willing to defend like their lives depend on it. - A leader who makes EVERYONE around them better. - A coach who knows success is about culture, not schemes.

Good start to the season hitting .417 through the first two weeks. Here are some videos of my recent swings! @chaskabaseball @HFoss3 @GRBNorthstar @CoachKvas @PrepBaseballMN @Jaku_Throws

Congrats to our guys on the State All-Tournament Team & Tyler’s Strib Varsity All-Minnesota Team!

Great job @Kalin_Jochum!

@CarverCoGuy Thanks appreciate it!! All Chaska schools kids that play team basketball!

@DJochumMN Congrats on 🏆🏀 Fun team to watch!

@Kalin_Jochum great job showing people you are more than just a baseball player and that kids can be successful at multiple sports at a high level!

@MN_BCA Apparently taking your team from 11 wins last year to a 4A State title this year with a 25 game win streak with all home grown talent isn’t enough to win coach of the year. Seems like the good ole boys club to me.

Chaska coach Nick Hayes after winning last night's Class 4A championship against Apple Valley: “It just shows the guys were bought in playing team ball. Offense is fun, but we talk about defense is winning championships.” @CHSboyshoops @mnbasketballhub

@crich55372 @Patrick_Reusse His point was they were both underdogs. Obviously AV was the lower seed but both were considered big underdogs going in.

@Patrick_Reusse Chaska was NOT the underdog in the championship 🤡

Stout comeback by Apple Valley crew, but Chaska is underdog that wins upset-filled Class 4A tourney. Boys hoops will be back on schedule next March with no week off between sections and state.

If you put your end of bench guys into the game, let them play to the buzzer. If you’re just gonna hold the ball because you wanna be respectful, let your regulars do that. Annoying to me that guys that barely get to play have to go out there and stand with the ball.

@GlencoeBrewers @Kalin_Jochum Appreciate the support @GlencoeBrewers! What a fun game!

Cheering on our guy @Kalin_Jochum in the state championship for Chaska vs Apple Valley. Good luck Kalin!

Chaska gets it done! Congrats to @Kalin_Jochum on being clutch going 6/6 on free throws in the last minute to seal the victory. He also was selected to the all tournament team!
