Central AZ

Did you check their web site. I believe that the Arizona JC use wood bats and from our baseball contacts they play a very competitive program.

Ian Kinsler was one of their former players.

Have you visited the campus and city?

It's a competitive program, ranked 10th in the nation for JUCO. My son has a couple of friends who play there. Their reputation here is that it's a good team; both Central AZ and Yavapai produce a fair share of players at the next level.  Location is a very small community, not a lot to do outside of school most likely which can be good and bad ;-).

In 2020 Central Arizona had 28 players at 4 year colleges.

Strong program.  It will be very competitive for playing time as they get quite a few D1 players that laeave after their first year.

The conference is very good. 2019 Central AZ won the Division 1 championship and Mesa (same conference) lost in the championship game in Division 2. 2016 Yavapai won the Division 1 as well.

The school is not located near very much.  Largest town near by is Casa Grande, which has all the basics (restaurants, movie theater, etc)

New analytics that we are testing out

For the 2020 season (compared to 2019) Central Arizona, turnover was 71%,

4 players were drafted and signed

~13 transferred out (12 to 4 yr school,  1 to another JUCO)
