Hi, my son is 15 yrs old on the varsity team at a small Christian high school in Illinois. He has been playing on Travel teams the past 4 years and has pitch very well against some top teams in the state. His high school coach is a firm believer in arm strengthing and has been working him very hard(no Problems with that) He has had 6 starts this spring already, with pitch counts of 85,91,74,89,112,115. Is this to much for a 15 year old?. Should I watch how he feels regarding tiredness or sorness? I really feel he has a future after High School. Please respond when you can.

Thanks,
Rick Palmer
