White Out

Hello All,

When I hear the words"white out", I think about a stadium filled with fans wearing white shirts. Here at MBC during softball season, it means snow on our softball field and it has finally arrived this week. It is frustrating but out of my control so it does me no good to get upset or negative. We can't use the snow as an excuse to not work hard because we can control our attitude and hustle in practice whether we are outside or in the gym. When life throws you a curve ball, hit a grand slam! Until next time. . . . GO SQUIRRELS!!!

2011 Season

Hello All,

Finally it's here-softball season is upon us and the first week of practice is almost over. I am excited about the upcoming season. There is a lot of potential there and I hope the players are just as enthusiastic as I am.
I am looking forward to seeing exactly how much we can achieve this season.
The players this week have been trying to get to know each other in a very positive and productive way. We have 5 returners this year along with welcoming in 12 newcomers. We all know that team chemistry is very important in any sport. As the great Henry Ford stated:
"Coming together is the beginning
Keeping together is progress
Working together is success"
I know this will transcend over to our team. The players have been working hard all week and we want to improve each and every week. Thanks for checking in with the Fighting Squirrels softball program and I will do my best to keep you informed and updated through these blogs. Until next time. . . . . GO SQUIRRELS!!!
