I think you already know this, but for DIII kids, so long as they believe in themselves and give 110%, it really does take one person to believe in them and give them a chance to prove their ability.
Hokieone stepped up in a very big way to provide that opportunity and to say "I believe in you."
Having read what you post, I have a feeling that next year about this time, we won't only be reading what you have written, even though it is clear we all love your writing.
Nope, I think next year about this time we are also going to be reading and enjoying what others are writing about you...as a baseball player, pitcher, competitor, and teammate.
Sometimes motivation comes as much from those who believe and provide a chance as it does from those who don't support a player and provide them the opportunity to compete.
I am reading you have a reason every day from now until June to do that little extra, and I am betting you do.
