Think R-E-S-T, players. We've introduced the "E" and the "T". After next weekend, we'll talk about them all right here. So, if you need a quick refresher, this will be the place to come.
I thought Friday's practice indoors was sharp. All of our pitchers threw measured bullpens. Every one hit, worked count cage, and two-strike approach. Our tee and toss work was productive, too.
Keep this in mind: Our goal is to make everything we do productive; that is, we want our work in practice to prepare us for executing our approach in games. I think we are on the way.
Practice is where it's at.
I am really excited because this Friday night is our fourth annual High School Retreat. We will talk philosophy so that you players all understand what we are trying to accomplish. We'll also take some time to share prayer requests and goals. I really look forward to hearing from all the coaches. This is a time for each of us to share our hearts with you, as well as our visions for the coming season.
We'll also hear from our Chaplain Lee Rushing. I always look forward to hearing from Lee.
Plus, I will own you all in late-night basketball.
After this weekend, we'll be united and ready to roll into our season. It's a good thing ... because it's coming fast. We scrimmage The Woodlands Christian Academy on Monday, Jan. 25.
Get ready.
See you on the field,
Coach Rut
