Michigan Juco Baseball!

Posted on September 17, 2009 at 1:24pm 1 Comment

I'm going to Michigan State tomorrow to coach the pitchers for a double header. I think we play Kellogg the first game and Grand Rapids the second. Gotta be at G.O by 8am!
I'm looking forward to meeting coaches from other teams. Great contacts for anyone wanting to play college baseball.
Anyone interested send me a message.
