COLLEGE RECRUITMENT 101

Showcase Baseball is the next step into preparing your athlete for college recruiting.  In December of 2020 Grant Rembert and Aaron Rembert held a College Recruiting 101 Class for Athletes Lab HS Players.  They shared their extensive knowledge from their experience as college recruiters and college coaches.  The left image contains a few of the important tips that all athletes can benefit from regardless of age.  Once you have decided that college ball is your next step make sure you:

1. STAY STRONG IN YOUR ACADEMICS.  Athletes with the best grades get looked at first. 
   
2. DO YOUR RESEARCH:  Does the school you are interested in need your current position? Do they need a 3rd baseman? Do they need a catcher?  Will you be flexible in the position you play.  Just because you have played short stop your whole life doesn't mean that is where you will stay. (Buster Posey, SS going into FSU; changed to Catcher at the direction of Mike Martin Jr; Catcher for the Giants in the MLB).
   
3. COMMIT: WHEN YOU ARE READY.  Don't rush the process.
   
4. BE UNCOMMON: Stand out with the little things you do.  Don't blend with the crowd. Be where you need to be when you need to be there. 
   
5. Know you are an INVESTMENT. Are you worth the investment the college is making in you? Will you give them back a big return?
   
6. Know you are a PROSPECT as long as you are playing. You need to continue to grow. Continue to develop.
