RARO And VMI Hold Fall Baseball Academy
Coaches talk to players during the Oct. 2 session of the six-week Rockbridge Area Recreation Organization fall baseball academy, during which RARO staff members and volunteers teamed up with members of the Virginia Military Institute baseball coaching staff at Fox Field. The coaches pictured, all from VMI, are pitching coach Alex Crosby (far left), director of player development Zach Woolard (back to camera), head coach Sam Roberts (red shirt) and assistant coach and recruiting coordinator Ray Noe (far right). The players’ ages ranged from 7 to 12.
