I must say we got lucky.
Tom Bischofberger has come through in a serious way for us. "Bisch", or "Coach Tom" as he is known around these parts, has allowed us to have use of the Varsity facilities at American this year. Awesome. We have the mounds (5), the field, the screens (too many), batting tees, 3 hitting tunnels, 3 pitching machines, throw down and secure bases... What else is needed? Oh yeah, and he has also said he would even help instruct. Who does this? Bisch does. All he wants is for our boys to get better and learn some baseball. The guy just loves this game and believes in the values learned from it. He also may remember when we, at one time, years ago coached against each other and had to use whatever equipment and fields we could get our hands on... I can't thank him enough.
Please keep in mind how generous both Tom and American high school is to us whenever they might need something. It might be trash that you see that could be picked up or even a hand with field maintenance... I am sure they would appreciate it.
