The Puerto Vallarta College Challenge is about so much more than softball. 🌴🥎

Triple Crown Sports Founder Dave King, and Long Beach State Head Coach Kendall Fearn share what the Puerto Vallarta experience meant during her first season leading the program.

From continuing a cherished team tradition to creating lifelong memories for families, the event delivered on every level. But one of the biggest highlights came before the first pitch—Long Beach State players hosted a youth clinic for local athletes, with several student-athletes connecting in Spanish and sharing their love for the game with the Puerto Vallarta community.

It's moments like these that make the experience unforgettable—on and off the field.
🎥 Hear why Puerto Vallarta continues to be one of college softball's most meaningful events.

Does one extra year make a difference? According to Kentucky Head Coach Rachel Lawson, absolutely. 🥎

In this conversation with Triple Crown Sports Founder Dave King, Coach Lawson explains how an additional year at the collegiate level can significantly impact an athlete's development.

It's not just another season of competition—it's another year of strength training, skill development, coaching, sports performance resources, media exposure, and personal growth. The result? More mature, more prepared athletes entering the professional ranks.

As college athletics continues to evolve, so does the pathway to the next level.

More time. More opportunity. Bigger goals. 🥎🎓
In this clip, Kentucky Head Coach Rachel Lawson breaks down how the NCAA’s new age-based model could open new doors for women in college athletics.

With the right mix of summer school, college credits, and planning ahead, student-athletes may have the chance to finish their playing career with more than a degree—they could leave with a master’s degree, stronger career prospects, and a better financial foundation.

Coach Lawson also explains the purpose of the age-19 starting point and how it helps create a more balanced playing field across college sports.

The future of college athletics is changing, and preparation matters more than ever.

What does the NCAA's new age-based model mean for the future of college athletics? 🥎
Triple Crown Sports Founder Dave King sat down with University of Kentucky Head Softball Coach Rachel Lawson to discuss one of the biggest changes in college sports—the new five-year eligibility model.

The new framework gives student-athletes five years to compete from the start of their eligibility clock, with limited exceptions for military service, religious missions, and maternity.
It's a shift that could create more opportunities for athletes to pursue graduate degrees, recover from setbacks, and better prepare for life after college.
The landscape of college sports is changing—and conversations like these help everyone understand what's next.

The future of youth sports isn't coming... it's already here. 📊🥎
Triple Crown Sports Founder Dave King sat down with Long Beach State Head Coach Kendall Fearn to talk about how the P5 Patriot Games and the Triple Crown Performance Lab are changing the game.

Imagine every pitch, swing, throw, and sprint tracked in real time—displayed on massive video boards as the action unfolds. This isn't just technology for technology's sake. It's giving athletes, coaches, and recruiters instant access to performance insights that help drive smarter decisions and better player development.

Welcome to the next generation of softball.
