In Psalm 91:14-16 The Lord says...
For those who love me
I WILL....
RESCUE THEM
PROTECT THEM
ANSWER HIM
BE WITH HIM
DELIVER HIM
HONOR HIM
SATISFY HIM
in essence showing us SALVATION!
Do you love Him? Do you have this BLESSED ASSURANCE?
Coach/ Parent,
In 18 innings of watching the playoff baseball I saw several throws off target, some way off, by the most elite players in the world. Your 10U, 14U, or HS athlete doesn't need your angry outburst. He needs a reminder or encouragement. Baseball is hard.
Avg pop times for the best 9 and worst 9 catches in the game. A 2.1 pop time in HS/ College is VERY GOOD. (On a side note, I very RARELY get a time under 2 on college catchers even between innings when the can cheat).
The Lord is good and he is faithful. The Milners are excited to head back to Phoenix to start the next college baseball program in the valley at SAGU AIC. Please reach out ASAP with players looking for a home!
On June 23rd last year, we had 7 guys and 2 coaches committed. Pretty cool we found 28 players, 5 coaches and played a 43 game schedule! Thank you to all that made it possible. And we also found a way to win 9 games in our inaugural season. Already looking forward to next year!
Wrapped up the season Friday. We were blessed to have the opportunity to come together this year and enjoy this gift from God! Remembering this season and looking forward to what is ahead! Thank you to all the coaches and players that said "yes" to starting something special!
NAIA sweeps the DH against a D1. College baseball is good all over America. Find a place that fits you and you like the staff and culture. Stop chasing a picture signing with a D1 that will get you a bunch of likes on IG and go where you're wanted.

Are we coaching our players for the 1-4 years they are entrusted to us by God or are we coaching them for the 40-60 years after they leave our program? Focus on building and growing the entire athlete!
Thanks for the insight

Big time move buddy. I just took over a small college baseball team and told the guys to stop wearing their hoodies on top of their heads indoors. 3 guys immediately pulled their hoodies off their heads. They weren't scared. Just showing respect. Pretty simple.
Parents and coaches stop treating your kids different based upon their performance/talent. If you took a bunch of baseball dudes and put them in a choir room, you would treat them completely different. It makes no sense. Treat them as children of God!
First roadie in school history! Lost all 3 but plenty of memories for all of us to hold onto. Thankful for this prayer to close the weekend before the drive home.
Honor the Lord, Value People, Do the Work. We would love to speak to any player that desires to live out these core values! We're building on the Solid Rock.
Let's get it done. Looking forward to bringing 30-35 players and 5 coaches on mission to grow spiritually, socially, mentally, and physically together as one!
Looking for the following for our inaugural season! We will be about Jesus, His Kingdom, loving people, getting degrees, and competing to the highest level possible with the God given talents we have been given.

We love our guys. We care about your faith. Affordable tuition in the middle of Phoenix. We are building something special to compete against the best small schools in the nation. Let me know if you have questions.
🧵Juco soph and HS '24 grads. We are looking for student athletes that want to grow in their faith (Christian) and compete at a very high level in college athletics.
1st year program and the school is investing in athletics! See below for top 3 reasons to look into NU. 1/6
@NAIABall
You can reach out to me the Monday after Easter to help our guys that will continue playing. Give us a week to come up with the best plan for each. Thanks.
26 men showed up to compete for the inaugural season of Warrior baseball at SAGU AIC in sunny Az! Thank you to all of the people that reached out to help us recruit the first class.
We're immediately looking for 3-5 part- time coaches to join the team to start a collegiate baseball program in Phoenix area. Looking for men that walk with the Lord, want to help young men grow up, and desire to be a part of a championship program.
What a blessing to Coach! Glad this day is here. It's been a long 8 months! Thankful for the 29 dudes that decided to step out and start something special. I couldn't have asked for better guys to start the journey. This is only the beginning!
Thankful for the commitment our administration is making to our student athletes. Two 70' cages, 100' x 44' of turf, two machines, 2 premium portable mounds, 4 L screens, and much more. You can hit all day and all year in Phoenix! Check out the pictures!
There are over 2 BILLION followers of Jesus a couple thousand years after his death and resurrection. Millions have been martyred proclaiming him as the Christ and Messiah. People from every demographic from nearly every region of the world follow Jesus.
He is the Way!
What an absolute privilege to work these young men. They're hungry, humble, and committed. Competed their tails off all weekend. Thankful to be their coach.
Honored to work with the coaches that signed up.
Thankful for everyone who's played a part to make this happen!
Historical weekend with the first baseball games in the history of SAGU AIC! We took 1 and had the lead entering the 9th in another one against very good clubs. We're thankful to all who made this possible and to the fans who supported us so well! It's just the beginning!
It was an honor to Coach such an amazing young man the previous 3 years. He works as hard a any young man I've ever coached. Glad I got be a part, even if it was from the other dugout this year. Congrats JRAM!
With this single, Justin Ramirez records his 210th career base hit, breaking the ACU record previously held by Brent Smith! 🔥 Congrats J Ram!! 🐐

Both 17U and 16U teams started the day out with chapel led by their head coaches
@Coach_Milner
& Sean Iverson. 16u lost 2-0 in the semis and 17u lost 6-4 in the quarters. Great group, can’t wait to see them develop over the next month of the summer!

A week ago we we were told we don't get to play baseball together next year. Today we tied the program's team record for hits in a game with 24 hits!

More than baseball…
Jaiden McKinney (
@MckinneyJaiden
) is an awesome young man and deserves alot of praise!
He writes words of encouragement and posts it around the dorms!
He is a major part of our weekly bible study called Kingdom Talks!
Numerous players have leaned on
We know we fall short often, we know we don't get it right every time, but our heart is to bring glory to God with every step we take in this program. This season we've seen lives changed, lost Coach Calde, set records, and by His grace were not done!
First coach highlight, Mike Schiefelbein. Christ follower, husband, father, baseball guy and brings integrity and an extensive background to Warrior Baseball.
All-American
Team USA player
Drafted in 2nd round
In the SF Giants organization (94-96)
Develops pitchers and men
Thank you for all that are helping and reaching out to make this a great first year!
Be Transformed by Christ, love like Christ, and compete for Christ! Let's go.
Baseball Twitter is really helping find the right people. Thank you! Let's keep it going. Still looking for players and coaches for our inaugural season. Please DM for information. Thank you!

For all my buddies coaching and players that ended their season earlier than you hoped for. I had this thought the day we lost the state championship in extras. Hope it brings you the same peace as it did for me.
Besides a handful of baptisms, this is the biggest achievement I've seen as a coach. Unreal accomplishment by amazing young men. Proud of you
@ACUBaseball1
!
Thankful Coach Montez is intentionally sharing the Word of God with his team! They may be in-town rivals but I'll always celebrate God's Kingdom advancing.
@nickstrong
And you can get an offer at a D1 and be a D1 guy, but still choose to go to a small 4 year and it would be a better decision. And vice versa, might be best to take the D1 offer due to academics, locations, financials, etc. Too complicated to worry about titles. Seek a great fit

#WestValleyPreps
Deer Valley has won its first state boys basketball championship. 63-61 over a tremendous Sahuaro team that I’m sure will be back here. Lots more to come but let’s start with this
🧵Pitch clock
Yes, it may speed up the game 10-15 minutes and help the tempo of the game a tad. It might help a few pitchers move on quicker to the next pitch. And it maybe reduce the time signs are given to hitters and catchers. BUT... and it's a big BUT... 🧵
@NAIABall
Great tournament!
@WestmontSports
did an amazing job as hosts and made a great run in the tournament! Congrats for a great season Warriors and good luck to USAO in Lewiston!
Coaches and parents the goal should be to B.E.A.T the other team!
better Body language
better Effort
better Attitude
better Teammates
I bet you and your athlete will enjoy the game exponentially more than when you focus on results and performance!
Great tool for any team! Don't have your card, don't practice. Create your vision and have athletes memorize their purpose and responsibility to the team daily!
