"
Ray wastes no words and pulls no punches. In clear, concise language, Ray Lauenstein tells you everything you need to know. There's an insight in almost every sentence. I've looked at expensive recruiting programs costing ten or twenty times as much and this is as complete as any of them for a fraction of the price. A WebBall top choice!"

Richard Todd, Webball.com, Head Coach- www.webball.com

"Not only does Lauenstein lay out the baseball recruiting process in great detail, he goes beyond it to talk about important subjects that parents and student-athletes face when competing at baseball in the high school level and trying to use one's skill to compete at the college level. His insights into nutrition, academic qualifications, personal training and injury prevention, financial aid, and much more, add a refreshing mix of information not found in other recruiting books."
David Galehouse, founder - www.varsityedge.com


Parents

"Loved your book. All the questions and answers that I didn't even know to ask (December 2004)  ...my son was offered a full ride at a NAIA Div.II private school worth $17,000 per year. He also has full tuition offers from two Div. I schools as well. Your  book more than paid for itself.  Thanks a million! (July 2005)"
       - Keith M., Tennessee

"It was our bible of answers in a year of one thousand questions."
        - Barb K., Michigan

"In terms of baseball, I truly learned a lot. The techniques you discuss on how to be seen by coaches definitely something we will utilize as he  progresses through high school. All in all it was an excellent read and I plan to refer back to it  often.  My son's end  of  season banquet is tomorrow night and I certainly plan to recommend your book to the other parents in attendance."

         - Joe D., Connecticut

"I have found your book very useful as a parent as well as a coach. Two of my players are going through the recruiting process right now, and the suggestions you have offered have been very helpful. I also have a son who is a H.S. Soph. with college potential, and I was unaware of the many things we could be doing at his age to help him along. Also, I am an assistant  college coach a and have found it useful in my recruiting of potential players for our program. I have recommended your book to the young men to help them in their choices."
            -Dave, Iowa

 "I purchased this book as a guide for both my son and me and it has been insightful.  My son has read the entire book and it had led to some very good discussions between us."
            - Randall S. , Illinois

 "I was surprised and pleased with your book.  The surprise was the breadth of topics covered and the depth in which you covered them.  The book exceeded my expectations in content.  I learned more about the recruiting process from your book than I‘ve learned from college baseball coaches at clinics and in personal conversation.  I’ve also recommended your book to the parents of several other aspiring college baseball players.  I felt I was a very worthwhile investment in not only my son’s future, but my family’s as well."
           -  Mark H, Alabama

"your book and site are an incredible tool to parents"
    - Mark S, Massachusetts


Players

"I personally found the book very helpful.  I learned a lot of info that I did not know about the recruiting process, eligibility, expectations...etc...  Currently I am playing for a travel team and school team and I think this book will help me next year when I get to high school and beyond."
  - Justin, age 15, S. Carolina


Coaches*
"I just got your book and started to read it and I can't put it down. Awesome job creating a resource that is so valuable for parents.  You really are doing something good for people."
    - Ivy League Head Coach

"It
is very comprehensive and informative and I think it has a useful format for a HS student but more importantly a parent of a HS student. It seems as though one could reference the book at anytime throughout their HS years to help with certain questions."
    -
Division III Pitching Coach (MA)
