A quick note to congratulate all the ‘26s who signed today. It’s awesome to watch kids we’ve played with, against, and in the same park ink their dreams. And congrats to those parents and coaches.

Saw a local kid post about her journey - not all roses. It was a great reminder that every path is different. 26s - the door isn’t closed. 27s - believe in yourself. 28s and below - do the work and keep the faith!

And… if you don’t find your softball home… know that sports are best understood as an allegory for life. Playing ball in college doesn’t make you a success, and not playing doesn’t doom you to failure. You have received lessons and skills for a lifetime… go do great things!
