It is talent coupled with commitment, mental toughness and the spirit of our sons which most often leads to success above HS. Talent can be “quantified” and many pay a lot of money for that number. In my view, talent, alone, often isn’t the feature which separates success, or the lack of it, especially above HS. Borrowed from our son: “success occurs when a thousand hours of preparation meets one moment of opportunity.”

As my son's pitching coach would say.."BOOM!" Love the quote as well. Going to share with my son and the students and athletes in my life! Thanks.
