USA Baseball NTIS


Another step in choosing next year's USA Baseball Team was completed last weekend with the NTIS tournament. Along with Nelson Gord of Playball USA, I coached the 13U Great Lakes team. A first class operation, USA Baseball did a phenomenal job putting the event together. The competition and baseball in general was outstanding. Players on our team that excelled and deserve consideration were Connor Enochs (Iowa), Tyler Halas (West Chicago) and Jake Millosch (St. Charles). These players were among several I defined as true "baseball players." To me, the ultimate compliment. The Great Lakes staff, put together by Pete Caliendo was outstanding. I enjoyed talking the game with them all weekend. Hall of Fame coaches Jim Hall and Terry Ayers, along with St. Charles North coach Jim Richardson and Playball USA coach Marc Besterman were great leaders of their respective staffs. A special thanks to the people of Cary, and especially those at Lake Johnson for their hospitality.

Coach,

How does one contact you via email? I'd like to open some dialogue with you.
