As I reflect on the close of another academic year, I am vividly reminded of the old ABC: Wide World of Sports theme, "The thrill of the victory, and the agony of defeat." These iconic words preceded ABC's sports coverage each weekend and helped define those unavoidable feelings of competition at the highest levels. When I hear this quote, I reflect on the many wins and losses that shaped this year, and how critical both the highs and lows are for the learning process for each of our student-athletes.

Malvern alumnus Justin Halladay ’95 established a non-profit organization ten years ago called Project Béisbol. Based in US and Colombia, the mission of this organization is to provide baseball and softball equipment donations, high-quality instruction, and international education opportunities for boys and girls in vulnerable communities in Latin America. Malvern students were invited to participate in an exchange in Colombia through Project Béisbol in October 2018.
