I have pitched all 4 years of high school, and I was recruited by a lot of D3, smaller schools. I'm not sure what level you want to play at, but I would assume this level. I watched quite a few games at the D3 level, and I would suggest : a decent fastball that you can LOCATE well, a good change-up, and a curve ball that you can throw for a ball, and a strike. In my opinion to be succesful at that level, you dont need anything more then that.
Just play catch. Start short and throw lightly maybe 50ft. at 1/3 strength. Do that the first few times. Then the next few times move back 20 ft. Then keep moving back till it's not quite long toss, but almost. Then move back in to 50ft. but throw at half strength. Do the same circuit. Then the same circuit again at 3/4 strength. Then long toss. Basically just build up throwing speed and distance. Try that.
If you can find some weights or a resistance tube that would help too. Don't forget to stretch.
