RAWLINGS IS PROUD TO BE THE OFFICIAL BASEBALL OF THE OHIO HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION. ©2012 Rawlings Sporting Goods Co., Inc.®, St. Louis, MO • 1-800-RAWLINGS OHIO HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION Dear OHSBCA Members, Welcome to the 66th annual OHSBCA State Clinic, January 19th, 20th and 21st of 2017. You are a member of the 2nd largest coaches associations in the United States. Many high school coaches and college speakers have said that this is one of the best clinics in the nation. I am hoping that you are able to take something from this year’s clinic and go back to your school to make the young men in your program better this coming year and for future players as well. With my involvement on this board for the past 6 years, I have seen the giant steps forward the association has made. It is my honor to give back as Director of the 2017 State Clinic. This venue at the Hyatt Regency and Columbus Convention Center is just one example of what a first class operation we all are here to witness. If there is anything that any of our 24 board members or the Hyatt personnel can do to make your experience more enjoyable, please let us know. Your board is committed to making this a most enjoyable and rewarding experience, and represents you throughout the entire year. We have the opportunity to recognize and honor three (3) of our own with their induction into our OHSBCA Hall of Fame this weekend: I truly hope that you take the opportunity to attend our banquet on Friday noon in the Ballroom to honor these three great men who have given so much to their schools, community and our association. There are also many other awards given to your peers and scholarships to the children of our members; you should not miss this banquet. I have taken great pride in putting together a great lineup of clinic speakers who have a variety of messages that will help you to get back into “baseball mode” as we get closer to our seasons approaching. We continue to learn and seek out information and I feel that this year’s speakers will truly help all of us grow our players and build a stronger program. The list of speakers for this year include: Joe Wilkins-Tiffin University Matt Talarico – Wright State University Ty Neal – University of Cincinnati John Emme – Corona Del Mar HS (CA) Greg Beals- The Ohio State University Rich Hofman – Stoneman Douglas HS (FL) Brian Meyer – Butler University Robert Smith – Ohio University Brian McGee – Wittenberg University Jim Richardson – Tiffin University Andrew Busch – Professor, Ohio Wesleyan Tyler Mott – Ohio Wesleyan University Blake Allen – Depauw University Tom Held – Defiance HS Kris Knapp-Ontario HS, Trainer Mike Birkbeck – Kent State University Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to recognize the entire OHSBCA Board of Directors for their dedication and hard work to this organization.
