Let this sink in. 78% of baseball players that commit to a D-1 school before the completion of their sophomore yr of HS, either get their scholarship rescinded or transfer after year 1. Scary stuff but FACTS don't LIE. Social media has caused a mad dash to commit!
Players: While going through recruiting process be the player that CALLS the coach. Go to athletic site, find their office number & CALL them! Leave a message if they don't answer! Don't just do texts/emails. Coaches can hear desire in your voice! Simple way to separate yourself!
Infielders, when I'm scouting, I'm evaluating you between innings. If your throws between innings as your first baseman rolls you GB's are in the dirt, up the line, high, your stock plummets. You are literally being scouted every time you touch the ball. #ItAllMatters
Jumping from HS to college & starting is everyone’s goal, but do players really know what will get them penciled in the starting 9?
To increase odds of making this objective a reality, one must know what coaches are really looking for from a starter.

Big day for @AtbRecruiting guys @PerfectGameUSA#WWBA17U as @NickOlson2023 & 2023 Logan Taylor combine for 8 IP without allowing an ER & a combined 12 Ks and only 6 hits allowed. Both are tremendous young men who are willing to work. Neither will be #uncommitted much longer
First off, I would like to thank all of my friends, family, and coaches who have supported me throughout this process. With that being said, I’m extremely excited to announce my commitment to George Washington University! Go Colonials! @GWBaseball1@TyKav12@CJONeill511
Confidence is a choice, not a feeling.
You can choose your body language.
You can choose where you direct your focus.
You can choose how you talk to yourself.
