Kyle Storemski has played baseball since the age of four. He remembers driving to games, listening to music with his family, and having fun.
Going into high school, Storemski knew what he wanted to do.
“My original goal was to make the team. I didn’t care what team as long as I could play,” he said. “As soon as I got that, my goal shifted to start on the district game days at the varsity levels.”
“After I got there I wanted to keep playing as long as I could and maintain my strong position,” Storemski added. “My goals were set to play at the next level after high school because I wanted to play baseball for as long as I possibly can.”
After his junior season, Storemski officially committed to Baylor University, though the process of his recruitment wasn’t what you would call normal.
Storemski was injured the entire summer season, which for baseball recruiting is one of the most important times.
Still, the Baylor coaches took notice.
“Coach Strauss [Baylor’s pitching coach] cane to watch me at a tournament in Georgia the summer going into my junior year. That put me on the radar,” he said.

For the Houston Rockets, it's already been an exciting offseason, with the team trading for NBA superstar Kevin Durant earlier this week. The Rockets also inked extensions with big man Steven Adams and head coach Ime Udoka in recent weeks.
Apparently the action isn't slowing down as the Rockets have reportedly agreed to a contract extension with guard Fred VanVleet.
Senior ESPN NBA analyst Sham Charania is reporting that VanVleet intends to sign a 2-year, $50 million contract with Houston.
Houston Rockets guard Fred VanVleet intends to sign a two-year, $50 million contract to stay with the franchise, with a player option in 2026-27, sources tell ESPN.

Charania is also reporting that VanVleet has a player option for the 2026-2027 season.
In 60 games, VanVleet averaged just over 14 points and 5.6 assists per game last season.
This is a team-friendly deal for the Rockets that gets them below the luxury tax line, helping them avoid the repeater tax. It also opens up the full $14.1 million mid-level exception to add more talent to the roster. For VanVleet, it's more total money and an extra year of security.
