coachpierce@lansinghitclub.com
|
| Team Info: | We will be playing a fairly local 2013 schedule. We intend on playing at quality venues such as Lugnuts Stadium, MSU, CMU, WMU and possibly U of M and UND.
Our team will be mostly comprised of graduated seniors and their college plans will be mostly established.
We will do special invites to interested college coaches, but we do not see the need to spend a lot of extra money on travel, hotels and food, when we have outstanding competition locally.
We will also be playing in a weekday league.
If you play for LHC you will attend weekly training throughout the winter and will have unlimited access to the LHC training facility in Mason, MI.
With 4hitting cages, pitching machines, professional bullpens, and a turf area, not only will your game improve, but you will be in prime condition to put up those high school numbers in 2013.
With the indoor training, limited travel, and use of the LHC facility as your personal training area, LHC is by far the best value for your summer season!

| Tryout Notes: | We are still looking for catching and pitching (like everyone else) and are open to evaluation of position players as well.
