Early this morning at our baseball field at Berry College. This place is beautiful and I always feel blessed to coach at such a great place. Only at Berry College is this your view.
Today has been one of the longest days in my 25 years of coaching. You always feel like you have unfinished business to take care of at the end of every season. It is hard to see our team leave campus not knowing when they will be back. Love you guys. Go Vikings
I wanted to take this time to say thank you to Shane West. He will be stepping away from the field to fill the role of Assistant AD @ Berry in charge of facilities. It has been an honor to coach with him for the last 13 years. Tip of the hat to

Thank you!
Behind every good coach is a wonderful & caring wife. She shares her family with hundreds of players along the way. She is understanding & plays a bigger role in the team's success than she realizes. I would like to thank my wife
@Cindy_Beasley_
for 29 years. Happy Anniversary.
I would like to ask that in 2021 we all make a commitment that everyday we have a goal of making a difference in someone else's life. Random acts of thoughtfulness, if you will. Nothing's too small. Intentionally make 2021 one heck of a year.
The guys just put 300 feet of drain in left center today. Thankful for a great group of student-athletes on our 2023 Vikings baseball team. Season starts in 2 weeks! Go Vikings!
I am excited and happy to announce that
@bencoker7
&
@SkeltonDevin
will be joining our coaching staff at Berry College Baseball. They both bring passion and commitment back to our program. Both are graduates of
@berrycollege
and
@BC_Baseball
. Welcome Back! Go Vikings!
I will have knee replacement on Wednesday and one of my former players will do the surgery. I am hoping he has a great day on Wednesday. I probably should have sent him to study hall instead of extra BP back in the day.
Happy 31st anniversary to
@Cindy_Beasley_
. Thanks for everything you do for our family on and off the field. You have been mom to alot of kids that came thru our program. You definitely deserve a trophy.
I love the first practice in the fall! Our year starts today. Excited to see what this year has for the Berry College Vikings. New journey with
@bencoker7
@SkeltonDevin
! Enjoy the ride!
We were supposed to play our 19th game today against LaGrange. So we played distance baseball. In my mind Berry won 4 to 1. I have a good idea that we will go undefeated the rest of the year. I know
@DavidDkelton
believes that they won.
So thankful for my Berry Baseball Family who have always been there for my family over the years. A special thank you to
@DrMarkFloyd
for doing one hell of a job this morning on my knee replacement. MVP of 2020. Thanks

. I appreciate it. Go Vikings!
As a head coach we meet alot of different people along the road of baseball. One of my all time favorites was Jack Martin. He umpired a pretty good bit 25 years ago. The last 7 years he would only work 1 game a year and it was always an honor to have him on the field. RIP Jack.
Congratulations to
@bencoker7
for becoming the all time wins leader at Berry College in D3 era. You have been a blessing to work with and so proud of you. Love you! Keep it going.

1st order of business today was setting a trap and catching whatever has been digging holes in our outfield
@BC_Baseball
. Then you see who has been playing on the field at night and we named him Kellen. Then we released him on the other 28,000 acres

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful wife. 30 years and still going strong. Not much I can say except Thank you for never giving up on us! I love you
@Cindy_Beasley_
Today we would have been coming back from Danville Kentucky. Wish we could have made that trip. I miss our guys but I also just really miss BASEBALL. People who love the game know what I'm talking about.

Great win today for the Vikings. Berry 6 Emory 3. Proud of this team for playing a great brand of baseball. Zero errors 11 hits and good pitching always equals a W. Go Vikings.
Happy Easter. This picture is from last Easter and the players we fed and then I dominated in fungo golf. Miss spending time with our players on Easter. Hope you have a blessed day.
33 years together. It's definitely been a great ride. Thanks for everything,

Mark Floyd for the 2nd knee replacement for his old coach. Really appreciate the care that Doc gave me and for continuing to look after the old man. One of the greatest gifts of coaching is relationships Love you.

Last practice yesterday for a while. Had to jump on the mound for a few hitters and at least take one round of BP. Can't stop father time, but I do my damn best to slow him down. Always enjoy some baseball practice. Looking forward to getting started back with my new knee.
1st week of practice is in the books. Guys did a great job of having a hard week of conditioning and practice. Excited for week two when we concentrate on more skills. Really good group of young men. Go Vikings.
Alumni deck is shaping up to be a great addition to our Baseball facility at Berry College. Looking forward to the finished product. Make sure you plan to attend our alumni weekend in October 24. We will have the dedication of our Cloud-9 alumni deck. Go Vikings!
@BC_Baseball
Want to wish
@BeasleyJr
the best during his first spring training. Excited for you to be traveling today to report tomorrow . So happy that he starts his throwing program once he gets to west palm. Go Nationals.
Final day of work on the plate. All the turf is out, and all the grass is down. I am looking forward to starting our season in January. Go Vikings.

Our pitchers have their first live BP this Friday and Saturday with our first intrasquad next weekend. It's great to have our players back on campus and on the field. 60 feet 6 inches is plenty of social distancing.

Dylan is on his way to Washington to have his arm surgery. Praying things go great and the rehab is really smooth. Looking forward to seeing you get back on the mound.
Congratulations to the

With a heavy heart that I inform you that Steve Shartzer passed away last night. He touched so many lives especially mine. He gave a young kid a chance to play baseball and thru hard work and commitment change him into a man. Thanks Biggs. I love you.
Hope everyone has a blessed Christmas. Be thankful for where you are and what you have. Remember tough times reveal character. You have to know that God has a plan for you and your life. Merry Christmas.
