Day 7
Just seeing how one conversation between 2 scouts at LVBA got a Tri-County League player a shot to play Professional Baseball this spring was unbelievable, but even that true story may not be amazing as this true story...
There is a player who graduated from Liberty High School in 2008 who barely made the team as a senior...He got 3 ABs the entire season...He wasn't happy with his situation at a 2-year school, so he sat out and then wanted to see if he could get into a good 4-year baseball program...
He had been coming to the Lehigh Valley Baseball Academy virtually every day since we opened on November 3rd of 2007...He is a hard worker...He simply is not ready to play at a top-flyte collegiate baseball program, but he asked the hierarchy at LVBA whether or not there was anything the academy to do to get him a shot at making the team at Keystone College, a team that finished 40-6 last year and cracked the Top 10 in the country at the Division III level...
How could this kid possibly make the Keystone College team in 2009-10, a team ranked 11th in the country in a preseason poll?...
A kid who had 3 varsity ABs in his career at Liberty High School 2 years ago and then didn't play anywhere in 2009...
C'mon, how?...
With one phone call by LVBA, that's how...
With no promises of any playing time and a promise from the kid to maintain a positive attitude and hard work ethic while at Keystone, LVBA pulled in a favor and got the coach to put him on the team...
The kid is on the Keystone College baseball team and their website verifies it for any non-believers...
What high school coach in the Lehigh Valley could pull this off?...
Answer: Nobody...
What travel team coach or legion coach or ANY coach in the Lehigh Valley could pull this off?...
Answer: Nobody...
Only at LVBA can a true story like this take place anywhere in the Lehigh Valley...
And LVBA has other college connections all over the country...
What can LVBA do for you?...
If you think you have it what it takes to play collegiate baseball, you may want to join a team at LVBA and get noticed...LVBA's professional staff WILL find the best fit for you at the collegiate level...
LVBA: Amazing happens here...
