throw'n bb's - the scenario you outlined would be the most likely. Hopefully the track coach would be happy getting any meets that he could!

 

Using the dreaded words "potential" & "projectability", he will likely outgrow sprinting - especially the 100 - being that he's already 6'1 with more to grow, have to think in a few years a 6'3 CF running a mid 6's 60 is a more rare species than the "37th fastest track kid in California" or some such thing, but we shall see. He talked, lived & breathed baseball non-stop the past 180 days, and now for the last week he won't shut up about track. His dedication to baseball hasn't waned, but all of the sudden track is back on the radar. Again, a good problem to have and we appreciate everyones feedback.
