 Coach: Brian Boldt |
Coach Boldt has 12 years of coaching experience. This will be his 8th year with the Comet Baseball team. He attended Pillsbury Baptist Bible College and Rochester Community College and is a Minnesota State Trooper. Sandwiched between the snow melt and the end of the school year is Pillsbury Baseball. It is a short season, but one that the team and I really enjoy. Philosophy: "It's not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game." That is a saying I don't take lightly. I for one, like to win. However, the big picture is how we represent the Lord Jesus Christ, Pillsbury College, and ourselves. I Corinthians 10:30 Back |
