Number of years at Nor th Forsyth: 2 years Number of years coaching: 13 years Philosophy: “The key is not the will to win…..everybody has that. It is the will to prepare to win that is important.” – Bobby Knight “My philosophy on coac hing is based on this quote. I have to prepare a team for every situation and I have to find athletes who want to prepare to win. The preparation (practice) is the hardest part of my job." Educational Background: Cherryville High Sc hool-1993 Appalac hian State University- 1997- BS Appalac hian State University- 1998 – MA Comments about this year’s team: “We would be a very good JV team, but we will have to compete on the varsity level. We have no seniors and a few juniors on the team. Our team is very young with some talent. We expect to compete in every game; with an eye on finishing in the top 4 of the conference." Biggest challenge as a coach: "Not having enough talent to field a JV team. With so few senior and junior baseball players in the sc hool, the biggest c hallenge will be to compete with very young players."
