The FAFSA for the 2027-28 school year opens to everyone by October 1, and the beta is already open now at studentaid.gov, where a beta submission counts as your real filing. If your son is a senior, file early: some state and school aid is first-come, first-served and runs out. This form is free, and skipping it is the most expensive thing a family can do this fall.

Here’s a few hitting tips from Ken Griffey Jr when he made an appearance on MLB Network.
Ted Williams used to wait on his pitch and Ken Griffey Jr. is the best example of hitting "his pitch" marked by his trademark swing thru the ball to wherever the pitcher made the mistake.
We never really knew if it was Griffey Jr.'s core development or his hands quite similar to how Pete Rose swatted at "his pitch."

Great way to end our week of youth camp with a game of wiffle ball. Thankful for the turf softball field after a rainy night.
Great job Brayden! Solid outing and 0 BB.
Had another good start this weekend at the Super 18s. Team as a whole took 3rd place. Also had some hard hits. @Truman_Baseball @MetsKC @BollesandStrike
