@theRealBigMarge 💯the best tradition for any high school graduation. Being led out by the rovers and then singing the alma mater.

One of the greatest traditions in the city. Congrats seniors!!!! 🍀👏💯🍀

Schedule release day so let’s run it back! 3️⃣ lucky winners will take home the “Good. Better. Best.” shirt 🐻⬇️ ✅ Like & RT ⏰ Winners announced 5/18

Gisella has been working hard. The jump she made from year 1 to year 2 was impressive. Looking for another leap as she becomes an upperclassman next year.

Please register using 8 to 18. We're excited for another summer of hoops!

Well-deserved Jaida! You have been such a steady presence. Batting .450 with an OBP better than .530 and cover a ton of ground in the outfield! A complete player that will only continue to work and get better!

@Michael_Cerami @BleacherNation The Hawk!

I'm giving away three signed copies of my book "My First Trip to the Bleachers!" I'll randomly select 3 winners tomorrow morning: - Must be following me and @BleacherNation - Like this tweet - Reply to this tweet with your All-time favorite Cub

@daveg829 Nobody more deserving than Kim & her staff. They work so hard & it goes well beyond basketball. They are teaching these girls to become amazing, empowered young women. Obviously they have success developing basketball skills, but they are helping raise a generation of leaders.

Wonderful person, Great coach I am glad that she was apart of my daughters life and help develop and build her game and character...Trust the process.. She really deserves this award!!

25-30mph gust blowing out!!! Red Bill giveaway for every Cubs HR? Yup!!!!! Retweet and follow @obvious_shirts to enter. #Cubs

Who wants a draft hat? 👀 Repost for the chance to win!

Believe…the work is just starting! TGB will not be outworked!

Big Key, adding to her bag constantly!

Well-deserved! Nobody better than our Trinity basketball staff. They have built something so special.

Transactional vs. Transformational Coaching… Dan Hurley shared a story about asking Geno Auriemma for advice after a rough start last season. Geno didn’t mince words: “Listen, if the only gratification and the only part of coaching that excites you is winning the national championship, then you’ve lost your way, buddy! Where’s the joy in the things that you’ve always been about as a coach before you went on the championship run, like relationships with your players, like helping people get better, like making your team the best it can be. Be a coach, man. This is when you really need to be a leader. This team isn’t as good as last year’s, so what the hell are you going to do about it? Are you going home? Are you going to let this thing unravel?” That’s the tension every coach feels: Transactional vs. Transformational. Transactional coaching is outcome-obsessed. It’s about the wins, the losses, the trophies. The problem? When results don’t come, your purpose crumbles with them. Transformational coaching is different. It’s about people. It’s about growth. It’s about building something that lasts, whether the scoreboard agrees with you or not. And this is why mentorship matters so much in coaching. Left on our own, it’s easy to drift into a transactional mode without even realizing it. A trusted mentor can pull us back to center and remind us why we started coaching in the first place. To build relationships. To develop players as people. To make teams the best they can be. Wins matter. But they’re not the why. The why is impact. The why is growth. The why is leaving your players better than you found them. The process is the prize. Stay grounded. Stay on the path. Always remember your why.

What a way to start the season!

Let’s go Z! Carroll got themselves a good one. A true leader in every sense of the word. She will not be outworked.

@MelvinLTate I’m more pumped about the announcement of Marquee being added back to Hulu. I haven’t been able to watch much Cubs baseball since 2020 other than national broadcasts. Now I can catch some more games!

Am I wrong for suggesting that today and tomorrow - the first two days of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament (which frankly are two of the best days on the sports calendar) - should be national holidays? I know lots of office bosses dread these days; not much work gets done :)

@JazzyBuckets Had no idea Jaz…so sorry for your loss. She is so proud of you.

Most people don’t know but during the beginning of our playoff run my grandma passed away. I went to her funeral and the very next day I played in the regional championship game. That entire playoff run/state finals meant more to me than anyone will ever know 🕊️💔

Honored to be selected to the @ExtraInningSB Class of 2029 Top 100 National Elite Slappers Hotlist. Thankful to be included with such a talented group! Thank you to all of my Coaches. @coachdan12 @Coachkevin_3117 @CoastRecruitsSB @SBRRetweets @kendeltrendel

@shamona_q Kim was born to coach! Even while doing her state finals media session, the people interviewing her commented that her energy and passion around coaching came through the computer zoom call. They said you could see it in her eyes and her face that she loves being a coach.

Proud of her! The work, the dedication, the passion for her program! She deserves all the praise! 💙💪🏾💙💪🏾
