If you are going to a HA D1 then you also have to be pumping up your grades, and your ACT/SAT prep. That will be the first question that RC/HC's will ask.

You are still young, and have time to improve, but you need to get much higher than a 75mph exit velo to attract attention from any college, let alone a D1. Corner guys generally are expected to bring a big bat with them. As far as I know, all official exit velos are measured off tees, and with a BBCOR or wood bat.

Best to make sure that you have numbers that will be of interest before you show them, whether they be academic(GPA/SAT/ACT) of BB (60yd, arm velo, bat velo, ht., weight).

I'm sure you know this, but a 1B can get away with a lesser arm velo, while a 3B needs to have a strong arm. Both positions need BIG sticks.
