Coach Morgan Singletary Working with Young Players in Hopewell Youth Baseball

When you’re a coach, it’s a passion and it’s something that you love to do, no matter the age of players or the time of year.

Hopewell High School baseball coach Morgan Singletary and his team wrapped up their season a couple weeks ago, losing in the 1st round of the WPIAL playoffs.

So, with the baseball season over with and with him being a schoolteacher in the district, technically, this is Singletary’s ‘off-season’/summer.

But as I mentioned earlier, when you’re a coach and have a passion for something, you’re not looking for an offseason, you want to continue to work and teach. Which is exactly what Coach Singletary did Sunday morning at the Kane Road Baseball fields.

This morning, Coach Singletary invited Hopewell kids currently playing in the Coaches Pitch league to come and work on their fielding, throwing, catching, running and certain defensive situations.

This is obviously a great opportunity for the young kids in our district to get hands on coaching from a knowledgeable and successful coach, that’s led Hopewell HS Baseball to two WPIAL Championships. I’m not sure of too many coaches in the WPIAL that are volunteering their time for something like this, but Hopewell is fortunate that Coach Singletary is doing so.

It’s great to hear that this is something that will continue most Sundays throughout the summer. This is free so if you’re child wants to take part and get better, this will continue next Sunday from 11 AM until Noon.
