Sounds like you've got some great people to work with and learn from. Keep it going! Your coach is right when he says it only takes one team.

If I were to guess as to one thing that you describe that kept you from that National invitation it would the 85 mph fastball. That is outstanding for sure, but they are probably looking for near-90 to 90+ guys. I was at the National showcase 2 years ago and nearly every pitcher threw 88 and above. But not being in the National showcase does NOT mean you won't play beyond HS. Keep the faith and let us know how it goes this summer.

All the best!
