At Troy I visited for the last regular season home series when they played South Alabama. I got to meet all the coaches and tour campus and learn more about the program. On the Southeastern visit, I toured the campus and baseball facilities and was impressed with everything Southeastern is doing with their campus and facilities in the near future.
