Padres closer Trevor Hoffman, who had been in contract negotiations with the team until this week when an offer was reportedly pulled, shared his thoughts on integrity and strength of character with students on Nov. 7 during an all-school assembly at The Bishop's School. Reminding the group that is better to try something and fail than to not try at all and better to end the day with no "what if's."
He was on campus as part of the school's Endowed Leadership Lecture Series (ELLS) and received the Bishop's Medal.
