Assistant coaches are the unsung heroes. They develop players, build team culture, make tactical calls, and do the behind-the-scenes work that keeps everything running. Teams don’t succeed without them. 👏

My JUCO coach used to say: “Leave the dugout better than you found it.” That lesson wasn’t just about a dugout. It was about the game. Respect it. Take care of it. Leave it better for the next group.

This week in PISD athletics and a condensed @PHSWildcatBsb schedule. ‼️🚨Just found out boys soccer at Madisonville was moved to Wednesday due to lack of available officials. 🚨‼️

Boys soccer scheduled at Mustang Stadium for Tuesday 2/17 hosting Palestine has been moved to Wednesday 2/18 as the CS chapter had no officials to call our Tuesday matches. The girls will still play on Tuesday @ Palestine.

Calling a friend up at SportsCenter! Absolutely insane and high IQ play from UTRGV’s Damian Rodriguez tagging and scoring from 2nd base with an unbelievable acrobatic flip over the catcher! 🤯 @damianrodz54 deserves to be on ESPN for this play.

@MCISDAthletics Happy Birthday 🎂🎉 Hope you are enjoying your special day staying warm and getting spoiled by Rusty 💕

Happy 54th Dr. Tawnya (YaYa) Nail♥️💙

The “Ozzie Drill.” In 1998, I was watching an interview on ESPN with Ozzie Smith, and he talked about his favorite drill…one that he uses to “improve, polish, and trust his glove instincts.” in the drill, Ozzie got on his knees and had a coach “Pepper” him from a short distance, and he had to let his hands work freely to pick or press the short hop or short in-between hop. No thinking … just trust. Get the brain out of the way. Because thinking is slow. I stayed awake at night thinking of ways I could modify this drill to work when working with a group of infielders. It hit me in the middle of one night. Woke up from a dead sleep of a way that we could make the drill very predictable and simplified. Once the foundation of the drill was built and mastered, I could grow the drill and make it unpredictable and much more challenging. ***The video below is a culmination of 26 years of teaching this drill. My son, Taber, grew up doing this drill as a little boy, HS player and college player. This video is him executing the Ozzie drill on his knees and feet when he was playing SS for UNCW. It is an amazing drill. Thank you Ozzie Smith! @qualityatbats @DirtBroUSA

I love this. Right after Indiana beat Alabama, quarterback Fernando Mendoza was interviewed live on TV following a Heisman-level season. Instead of making it about himself, he pointed to his teammates, his coaches, and God. He made it clear he’s just one of 22 players, called the Heisman a team award, and gave credit to everyone who helped get him there. This guy is SO genuine. He consistently chooses humility over ego and gratitude over self-promotion. I love leaders like this for kids to see; it’s a good reminder for every person!
