I’ve been a coach for over 30 years, today was the toughest day I’ve ever experienced coaching. It wasn’t a bad loss or losing a season to Covid. Today there was a Celebration of Life for 17yo Senior Timari Rivera. A young man with his whole life in front of him.
Wanna be a great hitter? Don't miss or take pitches that are supposed to get crushed! When the pitcher is nice enough to miss a spot & leave you one up out over the plate, u need to be nice enough to demolish that sucker on the barrel!
Don’t miss crushable pitches!

Trumbull 10U wins again, this time over New Hampshire. They move onto the New England Championship tomorrow. My nephew Bryce picked up the win on the mound and had this 2b.
You never got to finish what you started, but the true sign of a great Senior class is, when they leave the program is it in a better place than when you arrived. Mission accomplished!!!! Best of luck in college
