ATHENS, Ohio -

2008 Prospect Camps Brochure

The Ohio baseball program will be holding two prospect camps, with the first scheduled for Saturday and the second camp slated for Saturday, Oct. 4.

The camps offer rising sophomore, junior and senior high-school student-athletes a chance to showcase their skills in front of both professional scouts and college coaches. In attendance at Saturday's camp, in addition to the Ohio coaching staff, will be a scout with the Colorado Rockies, as well as members from the coaching staffs of North Carolina (Chapel Hill), UNC-Wilmington, Youngstown State, Eastern Michigan, Otterbein College, Marietta College, Ohio Wesleyan and Shawnee State.

Both camps begin with registration at 8 a.m. at Bob Wren Stadium and last until approximately 6:30 p.m. Included in the days' activities are a workout session in the morning and games in the afternoon, as well as strength training and NCAA compliance instruction sessions. Nine of Ohio's 11 scholarship student-athletes in the 2004 recruiting class and seven of the Ohio's 12 scholarship student-athletes in the 2005 recruiting class attended one of the previous prospect camps.

The cost of the camp is $205 and includes lunch and a t-shirt. Pre-registration is encouraged as only 72 student-athletes will be allowed at each camp.
