This is the mentality you HAVE to have as a young player… • It won’t always go your way • The hard-work won’t always pay off • Life isn’t fair - keep pushing ⭐️ All you can do is stack positive days and trust your process.

One of the hardest workers on and off the field that I’ve had the blessing to coach. Super excited to see Lucas Holly excel at the next level! 💪🏼

BOOM! First Ox off the board! Lucas is a difference maker and is going to help the cougz staff tremendously. Nobody works harder than this dude and it shows. ICC Cougars Baseball got a good one. Great player going to play for a great coach in Coach Brett “Bear” Kelley!
