Clinic Recap from Austin Texas
First, a big thanks to Coach Yancy Culp for helping pull this trip together. My Posse Migeul Medina, Nickademus Holln, and my ever supporting wife Lori Diaz did an amazing job as always. It's so rewarding to work with such inspiring athletes who showed such great enthusiasm. I want to give a shout out to: Yancy Culp, Jack Bauer, Matt Campione, Beni Gifford, Alexendra Walker, Meg Ramirez, Brandon Owens, David Miller, Dustin Smith, Benjamin Pina, Jaime Lopez and wife, Dale Marshall, Lee Thompson, Marco Arellano, Michael Land and Alan Lewis. You guys came out and crushed it. I hope it was as rewarding for you to receive the knowledge as it was to share it with you.
