#562 Diamonds, Dinks, and Double Plays - Featuring Joe Gray
Manage episode 512869896 series 2286775
Born in New York and raised in Texas, Joe Gray, has spent a lifetime blending passion for competition with dedication to teamwork. A lifelong ballplayer, he started on the baseball diamond and never really left it, transitioning into softball, where he’s been part of two senior national championships, a senior world championship, and countless regional titles. At the Huntsman World Senior Games, his teams have earned two silvers and a gold, and while he’s now spending more time coaching than playing shortstop, his competitive spirit still shines. He’s also added pickleball to his repertoire, even finishing sixth at Nationals in Indian Creek, California.
After retiring from a long and distinguished career with the Department of Defense and later as a university instructor, he’s found renewed purpose in senior sports, where camaraderie, sportsmanship, and family always come first. For him, winning is a byproduct of doing things the right way, and the real reward comes from the friendships, teamwork, and lifelong memories made along the way.
