We will begin conditioning the same night. Plan on being at the facility till 8:30 or 9:00. We will also give out our pre-season conditioning schedule for Jan. and Feb. Any questions, contact any coach. Hope you all had a great holiday, now its time to get back to the grind and in shape for BASEBALL!

Toys for Tots, Food Baskets, Merry Christmas!!!!

To all of the players who joined the police department Saturday morning, thank you for your help. This is a important thing for you young men to be involved with, and will make a difference in somebody's life! It humbles me to see the little child who gets all excited over one toy, knowing that may be the only toy they get this year, and one of you student/athletes helped them. Or, to see the 70 year old woman come to tears when she sees several of you carry a big food basket and sacks of extras into her home, knowing she may not have any family to help her this Christmas. You guys are making a difference in somebody's life, you did it Saturday, and there is no greater feeling than to know you helped make somebody's day, or life, better than it was before you met them.

I appreciate all of the families it takes to run this baseball program. It is a grueling, tough schedule, and stressful fundraisers to make it happen. I hope that we (as coaches) not only help make you better athletes, but better young men in our community. I am proud to be associated with each and every one of you.

I want to wish all of our baseball family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I look foward to seeing you on Janurary 5th when we start conditioning. Be safe!

Police Departments childrens Christmas

I would like to see as many players as can come to the police departments children's Christmas. This is an event that humbles me every year. It is a good thing for the players to see the less fortunate and be part of sharing Christmas with them. For some of these children, it will be the only Christmas (gifts) they will get. Last year I had several compliments from volunteers about how well behaved our players were, and how impressed they were that we came and helped. The date is Dec. 19th, at 9 a.m., at Westwood Elementary gym. We will be delivering food baskets to some less fortunate family's after the children's part. They don't have to stay for that, but I would like to see them there to help the children. Any questions feel free to call me. Any players who come, wear your jacket and red hats.

Thanks,
Coach Floied
