Reply to "Columbia University"

GOV, folks at Columbia are extremely supportive of the job Coach Boretti is doing. Some information I received indicated the school has already been successful in retaining him when openings elsewhere were possibly available.

If we look at their 2016 schedule, they start the season in FLA followed with a long trip to Southern CA where they will battle very top programs (nationally) such as USD, Pepperdine and Long Beach State.  There is little doubt these trips give the program terrific visibility not to mention challenges against some of the upper echelon in  D1 baseball. 

Speaking with people who are strongly connected with Columbia, and a more recent graduate (a former pitcher who was drafted,) it seems like the NCAA's are a goal and not just to get there.  They know depth is a reason they have done well but not won a regional.  The impression I have is Columbia baseball feels like they can get to a Super.  Easier said than done but one could get the impression the baseball program is a reflecting what their football results are not, and there is a lot of pride in baseball, as a result!
