Love to see our guys putting in the work!!

Monday hitting clinics with Coach Hall are 🔥💪

A few of the boys were able to stop into Arena this evening and worked out with Coach Hall during his weekly hitting clinic. They’ve really felt like these clinics have helped tremendously while being up at the plate in tournaments. Thanks Coach Hall for all the pointers to improve our game!

We would like to congratulate Alex Hoppe on his call up to the big league team!! Alex trained with Arena this offseason, as well as helped Coach and train our Athletes! Tune in to watch him face off against the Las Vegas A’s tonight!
