This past weekend, Brian got the opportunity to play in a 15 year old Babe Ruth "Classic" event in Elkart, Kansas. He was one of 36 kids chosen from across the state to participate. The highlight for him was hitting a 2 run home run. It traveled about 360 feet over the right-center field fence, and ended up on top of the batting cages. It was the only home run hit during the 2 games, and the other kids mobbed him when it hit it. He was presented the home run ball after the game by the State Commissioner for Babe Ruth Baseball. He also hit a double and had 4 RBI's. It was a special time for him. He got to meet a lot of kids who he will be running into throughout his high school career, and who knows, maybe even beyond!!
Baseball season is now finally over!! It started back in March with high school ball, moved through summer league and tournaments, and culminated with this. It has been a long season!!
2 a day football practice started this week, so I have a feeling that he will be changing gears and getting a football mindset pretty quickly!!
