Testimonials
“Baseball is a game of ups and downs. You fail more than you succeed. The Mental Performance course helped strengthen my mindset and reminded me that at the end of the day, we’re more than just baseball.”
-Jonathan Ornelas
Texas Rangers Infielder
“You can’t really lead others until you’re confident in who you are. The Leadership Development course helped me dive deeper into understanding myself – not just as a player, but as a leader and a person outside of baseball.”
-Tekoah Roby
St. Louis Cardinals Pitcher
“I want to thank you for giving me and my classmates the opportunity to grow more with your classes. The classes are very excellent, the teacher is doing a very good job, and he is always up to date on anything we need, I feel that everything is going well, and I am very excited to finish and see how to continue studying for a degree.”
-Eudrys Manon
Spanish-speaking player, Texas Rangers Pitcher
“It has been great doing college again after 38 years. It is amazing how much better you do when you “want” to study than when you “have” to study. I was a good high school student but I would have taken a few years off if it was not for baseball. Needed to do this for myself and love every minute of it.”
