Second Season: Day 18

Today was the official start of STEP camp, infamously marked by mandatory physical exams. Kyle had to be at a local physicians office at 5:45 am to begin a physical and brief dental evaluation. Kyle weighed in at 200 pounds with 11% body fat, the lowest BMI of all the outfielders present. At the field, he completed a 32 inch vertical drop and a 1.47 ten yard burst. Yes, that equates to a 4.47 40 yard dash or a 6.3 60 yard dash. Wheels! This was a lingering concern, we worried that with his weight gain his speed MAY decrease even though we were constantly reassured by the trainers that wouldn't be the case. I suppose it's time to listen to the professionals, hehe.

5:30 am. Or for the folks at home, 2:30 am. I haven't done that since college.
