So excited to become even more immersed in the Bear Family! Sad to have
@ThatGuy__Kai
gone, but excited to get after it moving forward! Thanks to Coach Iwasaki and Coach Spiehs for seeing something in me!

Themes from listening to the best of the best talk on
@ABCA1945
podcasts:
1. Elite Coaches don’t know everything, they steal things as well.
2. Their work ethic is above and beyond.
3. They ALL had incredible mentors that either shaped what they coach or the way they coach.
Fired up about what this group has accomplished during the regular season. 2 seasons removed from going 10-47, 1 season removed from 19-37, can’t wait to get back on the diamond down in AZ with these guys!
🚨CONFERENCE STANDINGS🚨
The boys are heading to Mesa, AZ for the conference tournament.
They have earned a bye in the tournament by finishing 3rd in the conference.
Regular Season Notes:
31-22 Overall Record
Won 8 of last 9 games

Every day I’m constantly reminded how much I don’t know. That can be such a scary concept, but I’ve grown to love it.
We have opportunity around us every day to be okay not knowing and choose to listen, learn and study to better ourselves.
I’m grateful my job teaches life.
Absolutely embarrassing that the
@ncaa
athletic directors would vote down a third paid assistant. If you want a student experience, you should support your coaches. I hope you can never look your Volly/staff in the eye again.
I can’t wait for
@KendallRogers
to name them all.
Proud of
@ThatGuy__Kai
and
@coachdrives
. Hard work and focus on getting players better. It’s been a long time since coaching 16u baseball at Bannerwood, but I’m fired up for two of my best friends and their progression in our game. The future is bright for
@Cubs
&
@SFGiants
.
I am so thankful to have been given the opportunity in baseball to work and learn with amazing people. This game has given me some of my best friends and
@ABCA1945
is always a reminder to live in the present and build relationships that will last a lifetime.
Big time weekend for the boys. I’m ready to get on that bus for Lincoln right now! A lot of team guys caring about the bigger things, which is leading to a lot of success on the diamond.

Every year, from the start of school to the first day of skill work, feels like it lasts about 3 months. Pumped to see what we got on the field this week. Excited to feel the energy. The Bears are back at the Jack baby!
Awesome to have two state champions coming to
@NCBearsBaseball
next year. Don’t overlook the power of players knowing what winning feels like. Excited for this group!
So very happy to have made a life long friendship over these past three years. Outstanding person, incredible human, god made a good one here. Thanks for the time stud, wish you well!
A great addition to our staff as we're very excited to welcome R.D. Spiehs to the Trojan baseball program as our new pitching coach.

RELEASE:
As teams around baseball weigh pay cuts, the Minnesota Twins and St. Louis Cardinals have proven themselves model organizations in how they treat their employees. Both have committed to keeping their full staffs on at full pay through at least the end of June, sources tell ESPN.
Very proud of the work these guys put in with me every day. The grind is real in our program, and competing through it can end with some awesome results. The 2019 offense has some work to do to keep up with this group. We’ll see if they are up for the challenge!
The 2018 offense put up their biggest numbers as a team since joining the WAC. The production on the field ended with a top 20 offense in the country at just over 7 runs per game!

Love seeing how upset half our hitters were from losing a hitting competition in skill week on September 13th.
The drive to win at all times is what drives winning in the big times.
How we do anything is how we do everything.
Very proud to be a part of this team and with this great group of young men. Truly great things can happen when you work hard, and I can’t wait to take the next step with the young guys who were learning all year.

With the loss,
@NCBearsBaseball
sees its season come to a close with a 29-24 record on the year.
It is just UNC's third winning season since 2004 and first since moving to the WAC following the 2013 season. Bears definitely trending upward.
