Staff Snapshot: Coach Brian Titman

We Must First Believe
By: Taylor Stevens

     Mr. Titman teaches Personal Finance Literature, U.S. History, and Unified Social Studies.  He also coaches the Madison High School Varsity Baseball team and has been coaching since he’s been in college. He coached a little league team for three years before he started coaching at the high school. This season will be his ninth as a member of the baseball coaching staff. Coach Titman also played baseball in high school himself. 
     Coach Titman’s goal for the 2017 season is to see each player individually and collectively reach their potentials as a player and as a team while they have fun in the field. Right now, it’s the very beginning of the season, they have only had a couple games and  Coach Titman says they are starting to move in the right direction for his goal but they are not quite there yet. 
     The strongest part of the team is that each player is individually talented and has baseball experience. Their weakest points is as a group. They don’t trust each other enough yet and that makes them think they have to do more individually as a player. 
     As Coach Titman said “Once they start trusting their teammates they're going to be good, maybe even great.” 
     The coach's prediction for the season is if they play with perfect intentions there’s nothing they can’t accomplish, like winning the WRC and the district championship. They have the ability to win those games 
     “In baseball as in most sports, the better team doesn’t always win, the team that plays better does,” said Coach Titman. 
     The boys face the Kenston Bombers on April 19th at MHS at 4:30.The team is ready, and Coach Titman is excited to watch the team play and improve their skill even more.  Everyone is looking forward to watching all their accomplishments play out and hopefully be reached. The Varsity boys baseball team will try their best to be the best they can be.
