Camp Philosophy |
The clinic will have a progressive format from week to week. We will analyze video and do movement prep weekly. We will train vision, swing, swing-decision, pitch recognition, approach, zone awareness and more. The structure will be similar to the way we prepare our own hitters to compete on a daily basis. |

Staff |
Associate Head Coach Giuseppe Papaccio, an All-American shortstop for the Pirates and an MLB Draft selection of the Chicago Cubs. As a senior at The Hall in 2013, Papaccio had one of the finest offensive seasons in Seton Hall history. Unanimously named a First Team All-BIG EAST selection and New Jersey Collegiate Baseball Association's (NJCBA) Player of the Year, he finished ranked third in the BIG EAST with a .365 batting average and led the conference in doubles. Further showing his prowess for the two-base hit, Papaccio set Seton Hall's career record with 56 doubles and tied the single-season Pirate record with 24. Batting primarily in the cleanup position in the Seton Hall lineup, Papaccio led the Pirates in seven offensive categories, including batting average, slugging percentage and RBIs. With 237 career hits, only three players in Pirates' history have garnered more. Along with Assistant Coach Ryan Ramiz also a Seton Hall Graduate. Ramiz led the Big East Conference this past season with a .429 batting average as well as a .528 on base percentage. Ramiz was also one of only four players to be unanimously selected to the All-Big East First Team that year and was drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the 23rd round. |
