<p>In Recruiting, a Big Push From Small Colleges, Too</p>
<p>The players, a jumpy group of 16- and 17-year-old boys from around the country, arrived at the Headfirst baseball camp last month in Ruther Glen, Va., with statistics that stood out. It was not just their batting averages. These were players who scored, on average, 1,300 out of a possible 1,600 on the two-part College Board exam.</p>
<p>bandit-great article. Stanford also has an annual baseball camp that attracts alot of schools and players with academics a large part of the equation (coaches there definitely mark down your SAT with your batting average)</p>
<p>Just as an aside, this will be interesting to follow. I've spoken with Coach Beccaria in the past and he is a great guy and represents the best of what can be found in college sports.</p>
