Beyond The Huddle Ep 34 -Beyond Wins & Losses: Coach Comet’s Legacy of Faith

In this heartfelt episode of Beyond the Huddle, Zach Rose (solo-hosting while Josh recovers from Thanksgiving) sits down with FCA leader Brittany Webb and Cabot High School softball standouts Allie Autry (senior, CF) and Addison Meeks (sophomore, 1B).

What started as a quiet huddle where girls were scared to pray out loud has exploded into student-led Bible studies, tears, breakthrough vulnerability, and a team that now feels more like family. Hear how FCA transformed their view of failure, competition, coaches, and even themselves—plus why they’ll never go back to real Christmas trees and what useless superpower they’d trade their softball skills for.

Real faith. Real fastpitch. Real sisterhood. This is Cabot Softball’s story.

Beyond The Huddle Ep 32 -Iron Sharpens Iron: Inside Cabot Softball’s FCA Transformation

In this high-energy episode of Beyond the Huddle, Zach Rose (solo-hosting while Josh recovers from too much turkey) hangs out with Sylvan Hills standouts Lainey White (soccer + tennis) and Tyler Jones (cross-country/track) as they relive the absolute chaos and life-changing moments of FCA Camp.

Expect muddy gaga ball disasters, the legendary Thunderdome, hog ball madness, late-night huddle talks that still have them texting their college huddle leaders at 2 a.m., and why they’ll never look at cheese dip (or their fingers) the same way again after revealing their dream useless superpowers.

They also break down what student-led ministry actually looks like at Sylvan Hills High—early-morning Bible studies, prayer-card service projects, and how to love your teammates when emotions (and golf shots) are running hot.

Real laughs. Real faith. Real Bears. If you’ve ever wondered why these kids keep begging to go back to camp, this is the episode.
