Covering nine teams from Divisions I, II and III, NAIA, and junior college, this book provides a view of college baseball from close up. Chapters draw on the action of nine weekend series, incorporating interviews of players, coaches, and administrators to cover topics such as recruiting, summer ball, academics, and the Major League draft. Fan support and the fundamentals of collegiate hitting, pitching, coaching, and conditioning are also closely discussed.
Gregory J. Tully is a member of the National Collegiate Baseball Writer’s Association and a former high school umpire. His articles have been published in the Oakland A’s Magazine.
