SCHOLAR SPOTLIGHT: AUSTIN HOLMES ⚾️
Sometimes progress doesn’t happen on a perfect schedule, especially when you’re a busy athlete spending your summer traveling and competing. But Austin Holmes made the time he had with us count.
During his Freedom Fitness Athlete Scholarship, Austin worked on becoming stronger, faster, and better prepared for baseball, and the results showed up where it mattered most: on the field.
🔥 Improved his 60-yard dash
🔥 Recorded the highest exit velocity at a baseball showcase
🔥 Pitched in the 80s
🔥 Was selected to compete at a High School All-State Showcase in Texas
But some of Austin’s biggest takeaways weren’t numbers.
He learned the importance of consistency, discipline, recovery, and training the RIGHT way for his sport. More importantly, he walked away with greater confidence in himself and what he’s capable of accomplishing on the field.
And that is exactly why we believe so strongly in this scholarship program.
It’s not just three months of gym access. It’s an opportunity for young athletes to learn HOW to train, be surrounded by coaches and people who push them to grow, and develop habits they can carry with them throughout their athletic careers.
Austin, we’re proud of the work you put in and can’t wait to see where baseball takes you next! ⚾️
And to the donors who made his scholarship possible… THANK YOU! Your generosity gave this young athlete an opportunity to invest in himself, chase his goals, and become better at the sport he loves.
This is your generosity at work.💙
