It's one of those - "ain't it funny how time flies" things. He graduated this year! Not only graduated, but like his older sister, graduated with honors, which is way cool.
Another piece to his senior year, was on the high school baseball team. He has played baseball his entire life, since t-ball. There has never been a season, spring or fall, that he's not played...that's a lot of time on the field...
For 2 years running, the Varsity team won the district title, which is a tough feat...but more incredible is that this year, they went on to win the State title as well! i.e. They are Virginia State Champs...how cool. Ashton was DH on the team & was able to make some timely offensive contributions to the teams' effort...They actually ended up being ranked 6th in the nation, after beating an undefeated (28-0 at the time (now 28-1) & ranked 3rd in the nation at the time) team for the title...too cool.
But, now it's on to the next chapter of his life...he has decided to "hang up the cleats"...and see what's next for him & life.
I couldn't be more proud.
