Coaching Philosophy;

I coach because I love baseball and I want to share that passion. If you have a desire to get better, and the work ethic to go along with that desire then I will do everything I can to help you reach your goals. I hope participants gain an unwavering confidence in their abilities on the field, and at the plate.
