It was so good the first time around that we had to go back for seconds! More than 6,000 coaches attended the 74th annual ABCA Convention - the largest gathering of baseball coaches ever. The convention was highlighted by terrific presentations on our Main Stage plus on our Expo Theater stage, coaches walking the floor of the world’s largest baseball trade show, Hot Stoves, and networking at every turn in the hotels and Convention Center. We set up shop in Indy to capture the energy, connecting with a number of longtime and more recent ABCA members to grab hold of the positive spirit, find out why our annual ABCA Convention is truly a "can't-miss event" for so many and how the relationships are accentuated when our coaches gather together. We welcome Tom Griffin from Carson-Newman, Dan Heefner from Dallas Baptist, Nick Mingione from Kentucky, Rick Vanderhook from Cal State Fullerton, Patrick Murphy from Alabama Softball, Matt Talarico from Wright State, Stephen Mackey from 2Words, Liam Carroll from the Great Britain National Team and ABCA Hall of Famer and former Executive Director Dave Keilitz.
