Wishing the BEST of luck to Apopka native Logan Gilbert in his first (of many) MLB All - Star game tonight. Gilbert will be representing the Seattle Mariners on the American League team! Good luck tonight Logan!!!!

Last week while we were playing at Carson Newman, I bumped into 2 favorite OBA Alumni! Tyler Michael and Frankie Delgado! Hard nosed kids that represented the program in the light that makes me feel so good! This is why we work so hard at the coaching profession! I was blessed to have the opportunity to coach these 2 guys in the same team! Fun memories!!!!
