(Video) "I'm extremely excited for the baseball program to be awarded with the Team Academic Award for the last two semesters. This is proof that the meaning behind our 'EAT' mentality aren't just words we hang on the walls of our clubhouse, but are core values that our players embody on a daily basis. Guys, I couldn't be more proud of you for this award. I know this is something we talked about as a goal of ours, and to be able to achieve it over the last two semesters is something that I am extremely, extremely proud of. Congratulations to you guys, you guys are the ones that did all the hard work and I can't wait to be back with you guys soon and out on the field." -
