“Don’t limit your challenges, challenge your limits.” – Jerry Dunn

We could have taken the easy road and scheduled teams early in the season that were cupcake wins to extend The Streak but excellence doesn’t come by being mediocre. Nick Saban said, "Mediocre people hate high achievers and high achievers hate mediocre people." I did not want to be mediocre or have my players get complacent by winning two state titles in a row and 87 straight games so I searched for bigger schools to play and continue to challenge us.

Embrace challenge and the change it will bring both on and off the field.

CHALLENGES = CHANGE CHANGE = GROWTH AND IMPROVEMENT

If we never settle, do one more rep, one more set, throw one more time, one more round of swings, we will find that we can meet these challenges on and off the field play and in life. It is important to remember we must continue to take action and give consistent continual effort. Small, seemingly insignificant steps

completed consistently over time will create a radical difference. Meet the challenges of the season one step, one rep, and one pitch at a time.
