I recently heard that fewer than 175 players in the Class of 2028 have committed to D1 baseball programs so far.
If accurate, let that sink in.
Yet there are still so many players and parents with the “D1 mentality only”

Good luck to University of New Haven soccer player Madison Maxwell as they start camp on Saturday. Maddy spent 3 months working on her speed and conditioning to prepare for the upcoming season!

No matter how well you do in sports, there’s always gonna be someone negative.
Win? They complain.
Lose? They complain.
Do well? They downplay it.
That’s life.
Stay away from negative people. Miserable people hate seeing others succeed. Keep working, keep winning, keep moving.

Somewhere along the way in baseball, “looking the part” became more important than playing it.
Custom cleats. Arm sleeves. Chains. Sliding mitts. Strange Eye black designs. Cool
Drip doesn’t hide bad baseball. The box score exposes it.

Being a high school multi-sport athlete should be encouraged, not discouraged. As a varsity coach, I support players competing in other sports. The problem isn’t multi-sport participation—it’s coaches expecting year-round priority. That’s control, not development.

The amount of H.S. Players Being told to reclass because they were over promised where they could play in college is a lot. The re-classing has hurt H.S. Baseball.
"Great teams do not hold back with one another. They are unafraid to air out their dirty Laundry. They admit their mistakes, their weaknesses, and their concerns without any form of reprisal."
" In coaching, you and your team face a fork in the road each day. You can settle for average and choose the path of mediocrity or you can take the road less traveled and chase greatness."

Tournament Directors at what age do you stop having baseball teams play 3 games on the final day? Don’t you think 21 possible innings is a little much for one day? What is the benefit? What are the players getting out of it?
