What do you like most about HS Baseball? There is not a sport on the planet that teaches you how to deal with adversity and failure as much as baseball does. A sport that puts you on stage in front of everyone, has a statistic called an error which means you failed in life, has a batting average statistic that if you are successful 33% of the time you are considered good, and you can't hide behind your mistakes. They are there for everyone to see, and you have to learn how to overcome that, and if you can, you are succeeding in the sport and in life. Words of wisdom: If a person chooses to be patient and positive, everything works out in life the way it's suppose to, and because it has to.

CONGRATULATIONS SENIORS!
Best of luck on your next journey
Cade,
I will never forget the hundreds of early mornings we had driving to tournaments and going to many places across the country for baseball.
We had some good times and good laughs along the way (ah, dinosaur)!
Watching you play baseball has been amazing, and the time it gave us being together was my favorite part of it all. Mom, Henry, and I are all so proud of you, brag about you all the time and most importantly love you so much!
Love, Dad, Mom, HH

GRADY PYTLINSKI
You have to dream before your dreams come true. From the time you were tiny, you loved to throw a ball. As a toddler, you would swing a bat for hours. As a preschooler, you acted out entire baseball games in the backyard and imitated the idiosyncrasies of various Rockies players as they came up to bat. Your dreams have always involved baseball, and it has been such a pleasure to watch you work to make your dreams come true. We couldn't be prouder of the man that you have become, both on the mound and in the world. BBE.

VANCE DEMBINSKI
It's tough putting into words how proud of you we are. You have been such an inspiration to us and so many around you by always showing your true colors. Be it your kindness, honesty, humor, thoughtfulness, or always being there for a teammate, friend, or family, we are truly humbled. It's been a joy watching you play 100's of games over the last 14 years and can't believe this is it. We're sure going to miss it.
Your future is so bright…
Onward and upward, Vanimal!
We love you tons!
XO, Mom, Dad, Rossy, and the Chu.
