#44 - Connor White - Player Development In Baseball & Clear Communication.

Today’s guest on the podcast is Head Strength Coach for Driveline Baseball and Portland Pilots Baseball Alum, Connor White. We crossed paths at UP when I had the opportunity to not only coach him as a student-athlete but also coach alongside him when Connor completed our Sports Performance Internship.

If you are interested in baseball, player development, & physical preparation then this conversation is for you!
