WHAT I’VE LEARNED FROM CHAD: I started off not being able to throw the ball 100 feet in the air (home to 2nd on 70 ft. bases) and with a lot of practice and lessons I can now throw a ball on a line 127 feet. My blocking has also improved tremendously, going from not blocking at all to blocking almost everything. Without lessons from Chad none of this would have been possible.
