How does he feel about cold weather? It gets real cold at Lock Haven. It's up by Williamsport. I've seen Florida kids shivering at night in August at the LLWS.
(the following is nothing but my conjecture)
Did you look at the websites? LH has lost a lot of games the past few years. Their coach has been there sixteen years with a losing record. My concern would what that says about the commitment to baseball. The coach is a former successful local high school coach.
The Millersville coach just got his first head coaching job at age twenty-five. Is youth good or bad? Depends on your perspective. He's only been an assistant for two years at Millersville. It's another program that has lost more than it's won the past three years. The coaching staff is new. They've brought in several transfers. It might be a young, energetic upstart situation despite the coach's lack of experience. He's going to be gung ho to make his mark.

RJM we are originally fro Valley Forge PA we relocated to Tampa in 1999 and Both schools play in a very good conference. Millersville seems really interested and are really trying to build the program they are coming off NCAA probation which hurt them for 2 years in recruiting so we are interested. Ryan is getting alot of interest from schools from Florida to Georgia to Penna. We are looking at the best Fit. Academically as well as athletically, we do have relatives in penna.
Has he looked into Mansfield? The program has been very successful. The coach has been there fifteen years and done well. MU turns out some pros.
He's been contacted by several schools in the PSAC and is looking at what the fit is. Some schools aren't recruiting CF in this class due to roster situations and you talk about snow Mansfield may have the coldest winters south of Vermont.
