I was crying but my dad convinced me to try out for the younger team since I was young enough and I made it and started playing with them. lilleyd https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806069879 2023-11-28 17:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806069879 6) When I was in 7 and 8th grade I decided to quit soccer and basketball respectively. I had played these sports competitively but wanted to focus on playing baseball year-round. lilleyd https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806074299 2023-11-28 17:05:32 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806074299 7) During my 8th-grade summer, my brother and dad introduced me to lifting weights. I recognized that the bigger and stronger you were, the better chance you had to make it to higher levels of baseball, similar to any sport. lilleyd https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806143655 2023-11-28 17:53:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806143655 8) Later that summer, my travel baseball team went to Florida to play a tournament. Playing baseball down there and succeeding while doing so made me even more excited to continue playing and made me fall in love with the game lilleyd https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806145300 2023-11-28 17:54:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806145300 9) As I continued to get better at baseball, I got more information that explained that playing baseball at college was made 10x easier if you had good grades. This has made me not only continue to try to improve at baseball but also maintain a 4.0 and excel academically. lilleyd https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806152393 2023-11-28 17:59:56 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806152393 10) One final thing I learned from Coach Zeiher was that nutrition and sleep are absolutely vital in order to preform at my best. I have taken this to heart and consistently track my calories and more importantly hit my protein goals in order to build a stronger body to help with baseball lilleyd https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806155565 2023-11-28 18:02:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleyd/diw59frh2iel4aps/wish/2806155565
