Hitting in The “Carter”

-

The Carter is the indoor facility for sports here at Williams Baptist. In the Carter it is where we, the baseball team, have hitting groups and do other baseball related things. As players this is where we often go to put in extra work as well. Even though the Carter isn't the best compared to other schools' facilities, as an athlete at Williams you eventually learn to be thankful for it. In high school, I didn't have the privilege of an indoor facility so that is what makes me cherish the Carter even more. I tend to make a lot of good memories in this place with my teammates and, that is something good that I can take away from it. 

Hitting in the Carter Tuesday was good for me and something that I needed. With doing this I was able to make some adjustments to my swing and get a good amount of work in overall. It was good to be around teammates as well. 

I personally have spent a lot of hours in the Carter and hitting in the Carter is starting to become a daily thing for me.You just have to love and enjoy the grind in the Carter.I will continue to take advantage of the Carter for as long as I am at Williams Baptist.


This is where the hard work is put in at.

  https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/35782987/nba-investigating-ja-morant-displays-gun-instagram-video Saturday morning, Memphis Grizzlies point guard, Ja Morant was caught displaying a gun on Instagram video and was given a two game suspension by the NBA. I never expected a player like Ja Morant to do something like this. This has brought a lot of controversy towards him and the Grizzlies. Ja Morant is also signed to Nike who is also receiving some black lash because of this incident . By doing such a thing, Ja Morant is only hurting his team, considering the other news they have received about other players. That news being that Brandon Clarke will miss the remainder of the season due to injury and Dillon Brooks being   suspended as well. This action of Ja Morant’s is just bad timing, as now his team could potentially suffer because of his decision to show off a gun online. Hopefully, he makes better decisions when it comes to what he decides to share online. ESPN also did a good jo

How Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier in 1947 went

African American baseball player, by the name of Jackie Robinson broke Major League Baseball’s color barrier on April 15, 1947. This day in MLB history marked a pivotal moment in the segregation of the MLB and would change the MLB forever. This wasn’t any ordinary task and Jackie Robinson seemed to be the guy for the job. According to “Is Racism Alive and Well in Major League Baseball” it says, “Rickey made Jackie swear that he would not react to the expected criticism and hate. He wanted a player who could win over the hate with his professionalism and talent. Jackie Robinson was his man.” Jackie Robinson’s bravery would also lead to more opportunities for Black essentially making the MLB what it is today. In the text, “Interest Convergence Principle and the Integration of Major League Baseball” it says, “It could be argued there are positive aspects of MLB’s integration, the most apparent being that the perviously accepted racialized rules of MLB were discontinued, affording Black pl

Jalen Hurts had a standout performance, going 27 of 38 passing for 304 yards and a touchdown while tieing the Super Bowl record with three rushing touchdowns. He also passed Steve McNair’s record for the most rushing yards by a quarterback in the Super Bowl. Although the Eagles did end up losing the Super Bowl, Hurts still performed well. As Bleacher Report states throughout this news story, Jalen Hurts has proved that he deserves a Contract extension. We see this specifically with his Super Bowl performance. Hurts accounted for all o the Eagles touchdowns, which says a lot. He also continues to show growth as we see an increase in his numbers over the years. With this all being said, I do agree with bleacher report on Jalen Hurts being deserving of
