"The goal of amateur baseball should consist of three basic things; give players the opportunity to play as much competitive baseball as possible. Also, give every player national exposure so that he may have a better opportunity to continue his baseball/academic career at a high level. Lastly, as coaches, we need to understand that it is our job to give our players a full understanding of the game of baseball through high end instruction with a disciplined approach to the game of baseball. I feel Team Connecticut Baseball has accomplished all of this above and beyond."

"I want to thank you for selecting my son for your team.  I believe you'll find that Mike works very hard and loves the game.  When Coach Hall approached me last fall about this league I was skeptical, primarily out of ignorance.  I now see that this organization is head and shoulders better than the other offers he had for this summer.  Again, I thank you for selecting him. I can assure you he is looking forward to this experience.

"Hopefully, Pat has been in contact with you to inform you of his decision to attend Elon next year as a member of their baseball team. Patrick's mother, Maryellen, and I are very proud of Pat and are so happy for his opportunity.
We would both like to extend our thanks for your coaching, guidance and involvement in helping shape Patrick's life.  Thanks for all the feedback you have shared with Pat and me throughout the recruitment process.  It was invaluable. You and Team CT have helped Pat to be in the position to make his dreams become reality.  
We want you to know that we respect how you do things on and off the field.  We greatly appreciate the leadership and friendship you have shared with Patrick. He is looking forward to returning to your team next summer.
Thank you very much."

"Team Connecticut is the premier team in Connecticut and New England in my opinion.  He also has one of the premier teams in the United States.  Although there are others in the Northeast that are good...none compare in my opinion to how hard Dan and his staff work to promote and teach the kids in the program."

"Team Connecticut and their coaching staff have done a great job in preparing high school student/athletes for the collegiate level.  Their players are well coached and disciplined on and off the field before arriving in Garden City, Kansas.  This is our second year working with Team Connecticut, Ben Merritt and Paul Bottigliero have done an outstanding job for the Broncbusters and newcomer Tyler Tomer ('05)  will be a great addition to our roster.  We are very excited about Team Connecticut and Garden City Community College working together.  Best of luck this season and one day you might be the next Broncbuster!"
