Here are a couple more ideas...
I heard an RC for a junior college tell a collection of HS baseball players "Get up on your own at 5:30 am and lift weights / work out. When you get here as a freshman, I don't want that to be the first time."
Something about nutrition.

Both of those ideas are folded into Strength (one of the 4 S's). Lifting...throughout the year...is a vitally important of building the requisite strength and size, but is absolutely incomplete without proper nutrition. For the nutrition newbies, start here: ingest 1 gram of protein for every pound of desired bodyweight; get rid of the fast good and junk snacks; and hydrate properly. BTW: take no more than 25g of protein at a time (your body will eliminate all the ingested protein when you exceed that amount).
