Recruiting PSA
If you send a college coach, who is actively recruiting you, your field & time your playing at you should be probably be there… and not at another college’s camp
MN weather was not nice ☔️ but happy I got to spend a little time recruiting and watching an incoming Trojan!
👀👀 the July recruiting trail…
• TCS Sparkler & Louisville Slugger IDT
🗓️ July 1-5th 📍Colorado
• USSSA Midwest Championship
🗓️ July 25-27th 📍Sioux Falls, SD
Last year my uncle committed suicide in the middle of my first season as a head coach. It reshaped me & how I coach.
Today would have been his birthday.
Tell people you love them. Be grateful & kind. 💜
CO Sparkler & IDT did not disappoint! Watched a ton of talented athletes and met some cool people 🏔️
Happy to be back home in SD. Trust we will be back next year though!
‼️ Recruits: as much as you are looking for your right fit, so are we..
Do you not only check off our boxes as a softball player but as a student and culturally
Hard times will not define me as a person or coach. I set out to build something here. We still have business to handle and goals to accomplish.

I moved about 1500 miles away from my family in order to go after my goal of being a collegiate head coach. As much as our players lean on us as their leader, I am blessed to be able to have this team to lean on in my time of need.

for letting us get some work in. Our bus broke down a couple minutes from their campus. Their athletic staff picked us up so we could use their facility before hitting the road again🔰
I LOVE THE SOFTBALL COMMUNITY
Receiving texts from former players about how they are achieving their dreams post graduation makes me extremely proud and grateful that I get to be a small part in their journeys through life

Team Stats & Play by Play ➡️
Went 2-2 in our first conference series.
You want to talk about a team with a “don’t give up, don’t give in” mentality. Took a lot of guts and grit to get those W’s.

First official intrasquad scrimmage of the year at Thue Field ⚔️
Facing some adversity early in the form of weather that will suspend our scrimmage till tomorrow. Got a solid 2 innings of play in from two energized teams!
1. My quick let’s make some kind of lines for a box so we can have something looks ridiculous but is effective on a time crunch/saving chalk
2. I am excited to see the pieces are starting to come together with this team 🧩
#DSUSoftball
Can we petition for a rule change to make it rock, paper, scissors to decide home and away instead of a coin toss❔
We played with a lot of intensity and energy during our intersquad scrimmage today!

First week of fall semester ✅
It was full of classes, team meetings, training in the weight room & finished it off with a team challenge workout on the new turf 💪🏼🧱

Split the four game series this weekend. It was perfect softball weather ☀️
Had some awesome bat girls on Sunday. It was heartwarming seeing the team interact and give those young girls an experience they hopefully won’t forget. A good reminder of why we play/coach!
