Coach Jordan,

The pleasure is all ours here at Carson-Newman.  Coach Griffin and myself enjoyed watching your team play and the coaching staff coach.  Your 1b coach was coaching guys up before the game as they threw and coached in the dugout between innings. The 3b coach was active and up the 3b line when sending runners.  We enjoyed the 1st and 3rd play with one out after a trip to the mound and the runner executing a perfect hard pop up slide and then fist pumping after he scores. The little details that were shown today by your team of players and coaches reminded us of how baseball is supposed to be played.

I played American Legion baseball for 4 summers in NC growing up in high school and was sad to notice once moving to TN that it was not as established as what I once knew.  It was refreshing to see that American Legion badge on the side of their jerseys today and your team exude what American Legion baseball is all about.
          Good luck coach.
