  • Rob Carolla As the Fall Championship Seasons Wind Down and Basketball Begins, the NCBWA Returns Once Again with the Latest Baseball News
    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 41, No. 10, Dec 2, 2002) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Rob Carolla As the fall championship seasons wind down and basketball begins, the NCBWA returns once again with the latest baseball news. My conference is in full swing with regard to hoops, which only reminds me that baseball season will be here before you know it! In preparation for ’03, the NCBWA has released its preseason All-America teams. Why so early, you ask? To promote college baseball, of course! The board, on the recommendation of several members, decided a few years back to release the information early in order to allow for maximum exposure. Not only does this allow SIDs to include this information in media guides, but it also allows for publicity to several different avenues. The feeling is that this endeavor has been a success over the last few years, but we are always open to suggestions. As with anything else regarding the NCBWA, please let myself or any other board member know if you have any suggestions or concerns! As I sat down to write this message, I had a tough time coming up with something topical for December. What other issues regarding college baseball concern you? Please send them along to me at [email protected] and I’ll be happy to address them in future newsletters. Even if it requires a little research on my part, I’d be happy to provide answers to any questions that concern SIDs or media who are loyal members of the NCBWA.
