Lessons to be had:
Rory added 15lbs since last year and his run and gun is now up to 103mph (+8mph). Our in-house average while training to increase the 90 mph formula metrics is a weight gain of 10lbs is 2-4mph on your run and gun. Outliers as high as 8mph for 10lbs gained has been seen, but that’s far from the rule.
High school guys, take it from a very high academic kid in Rory, find a school with a baseball program that fits your needs and development goals. There are pros that many NAIA, JUCO, and D3 programs have over D1. Some of these include more laid-back coaching, openness to try new methods besides 45-minutes of poles, and no structured lifting program due to limited budgets which means you can train how you see fit.
