Illinois Player Gains 5 MPH Velo & Recruiting Confidence in 3 Months
Derek, a 2027 grad from Hampshire High School (IL), came in unsure how to get recruited…now he’s emailing coaches confidently and throwing 82 MPH. Here’s how he did it:
What most players get wrong about recruiting
Derek used to feel lost. Inside the program, he learned how to personalize outreach, research schools, and stand out…without being salesy.
“I didn’t know what to do before. Now I feel confident emailing coaches.”
Strength > Talent
In 3 months, Derek added:
+5 MPH to his fastball
–0.4 seconds off his 60 time
+70 lbs to deadlift
+50 lbs to squat
“The daily consistency especially on days I didn’t feel like it changed everything.”
Remote training that actually builds independence
He’d only trained in person before. Now, he says the remote format helped him take ownership.
“You have to bet on yourself. No one’s coming to save you.”
Derek’s advice to his past self:
“Stick with it. Even when it sucks, it’s worth it.”
