They treated us all like family, from the time we got there. Fed us constantly. The Coaches drove us in vans everywhere we went. The staff are a very genuinely friendly group. Always made us feel at ease. They had a group of players talk with us Friday night. A very impressive group of young me. Got to met the owner of Chubbys and Sportscorner. Both very friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to get back for Spring game.
For the kids, they all had a player host. My son had Kyle Williams, and we all loved him. Such a good kid. They also had a photo shoot and got to try on uniforms. The kids are that up! And their player hosts got into it about as much as the kids did. :-). All in all a great weekend. My son didnt want to leave today, and honestly I really didn't either. We thought we were before, but I can honestly say we are now truly a Leatherneck family!
that is awesome to hear, thanks for the insight. Did they give you any idea on when coaching staff additions might be announced?

They couldn't tell us, but sounds like soon. Tying up loose ends and approvals.

Would love to get a pipeline started from Rockhurst to Macomb! Lot's of talent there every year.
