"Being only 5'3, I was always told that I would never have the height or ability to be a pitcher at the college level. I thought that might have been true until I found Dan. He has taken me farther than I have ever dreamed of going! Now this fall [2007] I will be on a college softball field, playing the position I was told I would never be able to play. Thank you for everything, Dan!!!! You’re the best!! Love, Courtney Eckman, Millersville University, August 2007
