You dream. You plan. You reach. There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, with belief, with confidence and trust in yourself and those around you, there are no limits. @AMercado_Olguin @coachfrausto @MikeOlguinJr @ExtraInningSB pic.twitter.com/VgpHGukjbb

BEST CHRISTMAS WISH
Kiersten Helms, a 2023 C/CI/OF prospect from Porter Ridge High, NC, has one wish for Christmas and that is to gun down a potential base stealer. TLI heard Santa loves softballers, so I’m pretty sure he granted that wish.
Dear Santa,
All I want is a runner on first so I can throw them out! Love, Kiersten #softball #2023grad @ExtraInningSB @Los_Stuff @ImpactRetweets @IHartFastpitch pic.twitter.com/e1kuthGzVm— Kiersten Helms (@KierstenHelms23) December 23, 2020
