Top Dawg Player of the Week: Vol. 4 / Bombs Away Braden!

During our preseason workouts and our in-season competition, the Dawgs organization is always looking to acknowledge our players for acting or playing in a way that embodies our mission and core values.

One of the ways that we award our players for “Embracing the Standard” and exemplifying our vision for the development of outstanding players and young men is through our “Dawg of the Week” belt award. This award is intended to be awarded each week the team has tournaments and a regular basis through off-season activities.

The “Dawg of the Week” award is voted on by our coaches and our staff after consideration of the most recent tournament or off-season period.

To win the award, the player must “Embrace the Standard” by exhibiting the traits and values that are core to the Dawgs organization, including leadership, accountability, excellence determination and a winning attitude.

Braden Earns the 1st Belt for the 10U Squad!

Braden was awarded the first belt of the season for the Texas Dawgs 10U team for his attitude and effort on and off the field as much as his baseball ability.

While Braden shines as a leader, his performance on the diamond demands huge recognition as well. Braden led the team in home runs this summer, hitting his first one back on June 6 in a tournament in Louisiana.

Braden has taken huge strides to improve at third base this season as well as working behind the plate as a catcher and developing into one of the team's main pitchers with multiple solid outings on the mound.

According to his head coach Tyler Josefsen, it is a privilege to coach an athlete like Braden and even opposing team's coaches take notice and respect his game.

Braden takes his talents to Louisiana on June 6th where he smashes the first home run of his career
