    Coach Wayton is a very knowledgeable coach. He does not babysit his athletes and is very direct. He genuinely cares about the success of his athletes.

    Coach Wayton has been an amazing coach, he cares about everyone succeeding later in life while keeping a great intensity in practice. He is a funny guy and loves what he does, he does not fluff, he is blunt, but he is like a teddy bear with a needle or two sticking out. Great coach, glad he is my coach.

    Cares About AcademicsDisorganizedPoor CommunicationRespectful To Players

    Should not be a head coach. Has zero knowledge of the game of softball (defense, offense, pitching, coaching). Is a pitching coach, AT BEST, however does not provide useful instruction, advice, or motivation for pitching staff... so can you even call her a coach? Desire/motivation to go to work= Nonexistent. Does not even coach third base in games... Puts on a front so that she does not lose her job... Lets the other coaches do her job for her... If you like a coach who literally does not give any advice... Terrible leader and communicator

    Despite his downfalls as a coach, he is an excellent mentor that values his relationships with his players.
