Coaching Philosophy
With one year of college coaching experience and three years working with youth and high school athletes, Miles emphasizes a player-centered approach built on body awareness, swing mechanics, and mental resilience. His hitting philosophy centers on building a strong mechanical foundation while training hitters to get on plane early and stay through the zone—maximizing room for error and opportunity for hard contact.
