## Resource

Lee Garris turned his high school baseball struggles into triumphs, overcoming self-doubt and a personal “dark place” to deliver clutch hits that propelled his team to deep postseason runs. While accolades piled up—including all-state honors and Player of the Year—his toughest battle was within, until former MLB star Michael Cuddyer reminded him to return to the joy of the game. Garris embraced that simplicity, finishing his senior season strong and heading to James Madison University with renewed passion—proving his greatest victory was rediscovering why he fell in love with baseball in the first place.
