Another week of M-W-F throw drills. Maybe some subtle improvement keeping left side from opening in middle of the throw, but definitely feeling more comfortable overall. #persevere #throwfar #trusttheprocess

azcentral.com/story/sports/h… Thank you @LSscribe for including me on this list. Happy with my sophomore season, but excited for bigger throws my junior year. #throwfar #shotput @BashaHighTrack @BashaAthletics

M-W-F throw drills days this week got me back to where I left off a month or so ago struggling to keep left side from opening in middle of throw. Work to strengthen that weak link #1 priority in the near term. #persevere #throwfar #throwersrule

A timely big discus PR 117’11”propels Bearden’s Peyton to a second place class AAA , section 1, sectional finish and chance to compete in the TN state championship meet! #throwersrule #throwfar #persevere

Continued focus on South African to “cure” that propensity to open upper body in the middle of the throw. Small but real improvement. #persevere #throwfar

Coaching limiting my own practice time but tried to work a weak link today with cue to sweep under left arm to keep upper body from over rotating- some small progress. #persevere #throwfar

Meet day! Let's finish off the indoor season right! #ThrowFar

Always a great competition at the Central Invite and appreciate Oswego for letting us bring some young throwers over to keep them competing during indoor season! #ThrowFar

2026 outdoor track and field season in East Tennessee almost here! Let’s see all the school schedules. #throwfar

Better weather and less time between practices getting me back in the groove. #persevere #believe #throwfar #throwersrule

Technique iffy with winter weather limiting reps, so switched to throw ball from discus to enable more position focus - just do it! #persevere #throwfar #throwersrule
