Thank you for everything Coach Allen. Knowing you over the past 5 years you’ve taught me so much not only in baseball but in life. Most importantly, how to be a man. I will forever cherish each moment I spent with you. You changed my life and so many others. Love you forever❤️🀄️

The Rockies select Gavin Swartz in the 11th round of the MLB Draft. The 3-star prep righthander is one of the top arms in the Midwest. BA's Ben Badler tabbed him as a sleeper draft prospect here: buff.ly/dwKsJDr
