Aeronautical Colleges

Southern Illinois Carbondale has a good aeronautical progam, solid baseball in a good conference and judging from your location is right down the road.

You won't find a better aeronautical college than Embry-Riddle. Embry-Riddle Eagles

Aeronautical Engineering?

Or more flight oriented?

JustBaseball,

I posted ya something in short to zone hitting thread hope ya like it, peace

justbaseball- My son would like to study toward becoming a pilot, and play at a school where he will get time on the field.

NCBdad- great looking baseball field- too. Thanks

If your son can really wing it, I would think all the aeronautical schools would be after your son...

batwest - I'm more familiar with the engineering side.

However, as suggested above, Embry Riddle would be a great place on the aero side...don't know anything about their baseball team or even if they have one or not.

Have you considered the Air Force or Naval Academy?

justbaseball- son has thought of the academy's but may not have the grades to make it. A posibility is to go to a 2 year college start the aero studies and transfer depending on his game and most importantly his grades.

ERAU is usually very well regarded on the baseball field.

Dad04- checking the roster, not a single player from the midwest and mostly c.c. transfers. Son would love to play in Fla, just returned from PG Underclass, he is already asking to move to finish H.S. career down there.

St. Louis University...Parks College. Last year's baseball team won the Atlantic10 conference tournament and went to the NCAA Regionals.

Who could blame him. 75 and sunny yesterday, today and tomorrow........

Dad04- go ahead rub it in, our spring like winter is coming to a close Monday. It was hard to leave Venice last week at 82, but someone has to pay the travel expenses.

Oklahoma State University has a flight/aeronautical program. Joey Graham, and his brother, recently graduated from there before going to the NBA.
