What are your grades and scores?

Whatever those are, identify the schools which would recruit a player with your academic profile.

Then, evaluate which of those schools recruit players who you believe have equal or less baseball skills than yours.

That subset (the point at which a school(s) finds its way onto both lists) are the total schools with whom you would have a shot.

Factor in your financial ability to pay and your geographic limitations (if any) and the list winnows down further.

Of the remaining schools on that refined list, find out which events (showcases, camps, etc.) will have lots of those target coaches and head to those events.

At this point, playing on a travel team may not help - college coaches aren't interested in team play; a coach is interested in individual skills - so you need to pick events which isolate and provide coaches' looks at those individual skills.

Time isn't on your side, but getting a list together could take you a few days of very concentrated and focused work and then identifying the camps, showcases, etc., will take a few more days.

If you still haven't found anything by the end of the summer, there are a few late fall showcases for uncommitted seniors - but, again, you need to find those.

Grades are huge, and like Goosegg suggests, fall showcases.  Get to the Arizona Fall Classic if you can.  Tons of coaches from all around the country will be there.

Thanks I'll make sure to look into that showcase.
