“He was the only candidate I met with about the job,” Stricklin said in a statement. “Billy’s ability to bring highly-talented people together — players, coaches, and staff — along with his vision for having a strong, relationship-based culture is what made him such an attractive choice. Add in how detailed his plan is for player development, staffing and recruiting, along with a sustained desire to improve, and it’s easy to see why he’s been successful.”

“He’s always willing to work, always wanting to meet late, meet after meetings and get on Zoom and stuff like that,” Fields said. “Early in the year, we would just stay and throw after practice. So just the connection that we have and just the amount of work he puts in, how great he wants to be, it’s inspiring to me. When I FaceTime and he’s watching film, I’m like, ‘Dang, maybe I should be watching more film.’”
“It should be pretty striking,” said Michelle Nichols, the planetarium’s director of public observing. “It’s a reason to get out and see the sky — and connect to it. People have been observing lunar eclipses for as long as people have been looking up at the sky, and they have tried to ascribe meaning to them. It’s a good excuse to sit back and think about the millennia upon millennia that people have been looking at this same phenomenon, wondering what is that and what does it mean?”
