I\u2019m a lawyer by education and I certainly wasn\u2019t looking for a second career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But as fate would have it, the recruiting journeys of my two eldest children, Samantha and Jack, took me smack into the middle of the entire process. Both went on to start as freshman for Power 5 D1 programs, both became pros, and both now serve as Power 5 D1 recruiting coordinators. &nbsp;I\u2019ve now been involved in college recruiting in one form or another for 22 years and directly with baseball players for the last 18. This will be my eighth season with GBG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What\u2019s relevant to the GBG players about my experience is that mine was not the journey of born superstars. On paper my kids might easily have fallen through the cracks as sooooo many talented players do because it\u2019s not common knowledge how this process works successfully. What I learned is that you don\u2019t have to be born to play college baseball\u2026you have to be willing to develop into someone who\u2019s qualified to play college baseball, then you have to be something special as a player, a student, AND as a recruit. It\u2019s my job to help get you there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If my kids can do it, there\u2019s NO reason you can\u2019t, unless of course you don\u2019t listen to us and think a college coach will just find you. They won&#8217;t but it\u2019s certainly my expectation that if you\u2019re with GBG, and you\u2019re willing to do all of the work, we will help them find you! It\u2019s really hard and it can be very tedious, especially without immediate results. But believe me you CAN do it! I look forward to working with you directly on your journey!!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ricki Marder ricki@garciaparrabaseball.com I had no intention of knowing anything about college recruiting.
