College coaches will all agree, we never know for sure if the success you had in travel ball will translate to college. What we are always more confident in is that success in the classroom will translate, so will failure. Your GPA matters.

Had a 14-0 win tonight‼️I hit my 4th homerun of the season, and @MarleighMac9 WITH HER 8TH🎉🥳 Also I was awarded @NFCAorg Player Of The Week!! So exciting💚💚

So many people want to get an MRI because they think the image is finally going to give them the answer. Sometimes it does, but an MRI primarily tells us what the structure looks like. It does not tell us how well you move, how strong you are, how you tolerate load, or whether the thing showing up on the image is actually what is causing your symptoms. There is absolutely a time and place for imaging, especially after significant trauma, when serious pathology is suspected, or when the result would genuinely change the plan. When someone is functioning at or near full capacity, imaging often becomes just one more piece of information, not the entire answer. Finding something “abnormal” does not automatically mean you found the problem. Plenty of people have structural findings on imaging and function extremely well which is why context matters. Surgeons look at problems through a surgical lens. Rehabilitation professionals look at problems through a movement and function lens. The best care usually happens when everyone communicates and meets in the middle. Do not rush to chase an image just because something feels off. Get evaluated, look at function, look at the whole person, and then decide whether imaging is actually going to change what you do next. #lightningperformancekc #athlete #healthcare #sportsmedicine #injury

Everyone wants a specific answer. A diagnosis. A label. A name for what is going on. Sometimes those labels do not actually tell us a thing. “Shoulder impingement” is a good example. It may describe that certain tissues are being compressed or irritated during movement, but it does not necessarily explain why that is happening. Is the shoulder lacking strength? Is the scapula not contributing well? Is the thoracic spine limited? Is the athlete losing force somewhere else in the kinetic chain and asking the shoulder to make up for it? What about the hips? I heard they don’t lie. If all you do is treat the painful shoulder, you may get some temporary improvement without ever fixing the reason it became overloaded in the first place. Athletes do not move as isolated joints. They move as systems. The trunk, hips, scapula, shoulder, elbow, and everything in between have to work together to create and absorb force. A diagnosis can give us a starting point, but it should not be the entire treatment plan. Our job is to connect the dots, find the underlying dysfunction, and treat the athlete, not just the name someone wrote on the chart. #lightningperformancekc #athlete #injury #healthcare #health
