“I am very passionate about baseball. My dad was a high school baseball coach, and growing up I went to all of the games. Seeing the joy it brought him while he was with the team. Once I saw that, I knew I wanted to follow the same path, but be better than he was. Being the head baseball coach of Parkway South High School was one of the best things ever. I love coaching baseball cause all the players I have coached make it so easy to just laugh and be serious. All of my success had shown when my team and I made it to the final four, we worked so hard for all of it, and being able to see all the work that we put in come to life was a big exciting time. One of my biggest fears is disappointing people, not doing a good enough job. Preparing my players, each game or each day, wanting to make everything about it perfect so we can succeed in the games. One piece of advice I would give to someone is always pursue what you love to do.” –Matt Brown, varsity baseball coach
