We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit. New week. Let’s grind!

Good morning flicks.

10 innings. Walk off.

What I love about baseball is that it really isn’t just a game. The work that goes into building character in every aspect of the game translates to real life in such a meaningful way. Can you bring you best no matter the situation? Keep swinging boys!

Last shots of “R” season.

Varsity baseball heads to Menlo today to start their 3 game week prior to league getting started. Let’s get it!!!

You miss 💯 % of the shots you don’t take.

Shots of some go getters…

Keep your eye on the ball and your heart in the game.

Slide thru…to baseball’s Home Opener against Terra Nova today at 3:30 pm.

Collecting moments in between reels.

The special thing about us is when you enter “R” circle, you’re considered family.

Who’s house? “R” house! Handled business at home. On the road next week, let’s get it!

Life is a collection of moments. Make them count.

A couple more shots from the girls first WCAL victory at the Crusader Forum.

Hanging out on a Saturday with the kiddos and they’re playing with their sticker books, so I decided to make my own. 😂

My take on, “Dribble, shoot, nothing but smiles.”

I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and share one of the things I’m most grateful for. Riordan is truly a special place that has given me so much. From giving me my Marianist education experience as a student athlete to allowing me to come back and serve as a counselor, be the Director of Boarding and blessing me with an opportunity to coach and mentor students from all over the world. Riordan has literally been my home and to raise my 3 children where they can run around in the biggest backyard, laugh, watch games/shows, get candy from amazing adults I trust, and be carried by 7 footers to feel what it’s like to dunk, it’s an incredible blessing. So when people question or wonder why I rep for the “R” so hard it’s because it means the world to me. I try and help and support and give whatever I can because Riordan has given me so much. And for that I’m grateful. #1

Gratitude helps us to see what is there instead of what isn’t. To start Thanksgiving week, I thought this picture was a good example of what most of us are really grateful for. Family…

I was so caught up filming the game I almost forgot to take some shots from the camera. Here are a couple I caught from Friday night.

All out, all game, all season. Love “R” squad. Sharing some shots from the roll and playing around with some filters.

Practice the pause. When in doubt, pause. When angry, pause. When tired, pause. When stressed, pause. And when you pause, pray…this was my moment of pause to start my day.

Day 3 Dump. Finished 2-2 beating a solid Mount Si team in the last game for Section 7. Great weekend of basketball boys!

Day 2. Tough 1 pt loss to Mater Dei but learning and growing through process. Bounce back tonight.

Running into summer…

Blessed are the flexible, for they will not be bent out of shape. The process can seem difficult and painful at first, but the joy and smile at the end 😂 is worth the pain.

Noticed a waxing moon. Represents intentions, hopes and wishes. This is a time to build strong foundations in all aspects of your life. Be ready to go forth with new light and added energy.

Official first day back to school. Word of encouragement this morning to think about how we work and why we work. We should work to become, not to acquire. We’re stuck in such a mindset where all we want is to want and acquire. Who are you becoming in your process? Your story is what you have, so own it. Become it. Welcome back!
