One of my boys has a similar experience. The 02 was all conference, all this and that, yet has had limited success as a college player at a small D1.
04 was never all anything, except to mom, dad and brother, but never gave up...big thanks to big brother. (played a big 24 innings his sr year of HS)
He is a soph at local community college, and is a starter. 2 others from his class, all conference guys, went to the same CC and have since quit. 1 other at a small D1, redshirted last year, won't get much this or next.
Will he go on to play at a 4 year school? He hopes and is getting some interest.
quote:He tolerated that *explicative deleted* for three years, but he had a passion to play, he believed in himself even though it often felt like he and I were the ONLY ones who believed in him.
There must be more kids like ours out there, and they need to know these stories.
quote:But most of all he refused to quit.
