I did "okay" in sports but pursuing the music business made it hard to balance the opposite schedule. I was always torn between the jock crowd and the nerds. I actually got along with both and still have life-long friends from both tribes.

​

I started coaching baseball when my son was in T-ball. Like many dads, I just followed him into Little League and rec ball. From there it just snowballed into travel leagues, American Legion teams, and finally high school coaching.

​

As far as playing ball goes, I have played on numerous men's softball teams all over the country from coast to coast. I'm quite competitive and enjoy the friendship that ensue.

​

Not only did I enjoy it immensely, but I learned invaluable lessons in clear communication, conflict resolution, and many other people skills. (not to mention all the great illustrations I got for sermon material)
