I have started this thread over about 10 times. Not sure how to word it as not to "self promote", how to tie it into baseball when it isn't all about baseball and I just don't seem to get the words out right so here it goes.
I just wanted to post a note to announce that my son has received a very nice scholarship offer to attend Kansas State University and has accepted.
As most of you know this isn't for baseball, instead Britton will be going to KSU to pursue what he is better at and that is Journalism, not baseball. He has already had his baseball dream and that dream from start to finish was to play HS baseball.
The moral of the story is to enjoy High School and if you are lucky enough to play a sport remember to play it with everything you have for as long as you can. If you dedicate yourself to a sport in High School one of the most important things to remember is to have a Plan B because in the end your Plan B might just be what pays your bills and gives you your identity and peace.
I am very thankful that Britton put as much if not more into his Plan B. And it just goes to show that even an average kid academically can get colleges excited over them when they put effort into their talents.
Any others out there with similar announcements?
