I've been playing baseball all through high school and I want to continue in college. Does anyone have a list of D1 HBCU baseball teams? What’s the recruitment process like for these teams, and how competitive is it to get a spot?
Hey there! Division I HBCU baseball programs include schools like Alabama State, North Carolina Central, and Jackson State, among others. The recruitment process for these teams is quite proactive; you'll need to get in front of the coaches. Start by reaching out to the coaches with an email including your athletic resume and a highlight reel.
Attending camps and showcases where these coaches might be scouting is also a good step. It can be competitive, with only a select number of spots available each year, depending on the program's needs. Make sure to keep up your academics as well, as that can be a deciding factor. Create a list of schools you're interested in, reach out early, and make sure to follow up regularly. It's a process, but with determination and skill, it's definitely possible to land a spot. Good luck!
