@Francis7 posted:Most HS baseball seasons are done or near done by the start of June, I assume. And, kids start college in August, at some time that month, normally.
For the HS players who are going on to play in college, how did you handle those couple of months between the end of HS ball and reporting to college? Did you just train for the 2 months without playing? Or, did you play with some sort of team? If you did play, was it a lighter schedule than your normal summer routine? Basically, what did you do “the summer” after HS and before college, when it came to baseball?
Son graduated HS in 2020. Plan was to work out, hang out first four or so weeks, then go off to second summer session at his intended college. That's what the school wanted. Same for he and I. Covid changed that.
He PO'd in a local collegiate league with 5/6 D1 recruits on his team, 5/6 JUCO recruits and 5/6 current college players. Threw maybe 7 innings.
If possible, getting to your school and getting familiar with everything for the summer is the way to go.
