Season Notes:
Bryan Word is a Junior at Boulder Creek High School, where has been a varsity pitcher since he was a freshman. He played a key role in helping BCHS into the 5A Arizona baseball playoffs last spring and he also helped guide the Boulder Creek American Legion team to the #2 seed from the Phoenix, AZ area into the state tournament. Bryan spent three days with Tom House and staff in June. After the time with the NPA, Bryan went 4-1 in July and August. Bryan was complimented by Tom House on his mechanics and is working hard at developing his functional strength. Bryan is a product of dedication, hard work, and his utilization of the NPA model with the guidance and assistance of his Head Coach Joe McDonald and Pitching Coach Jeff Osterode.

All-Star Quote:
"I came out to San Diego last summer and Tom really helped boost my confidence. I was able to use his advice and help for the rest of the summer season. I have experienced great success since my visit."

Congratulations Bryan!
Kudos from everyone at the NPA!
