OHIO HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL
COACHES ASSOCIATION
Dear OHSBCA Members,
Welcome to the 65th annual OHSBCA State Clinic. You are a member of the 2nd largest coaches association in the United
States. Many high school coaches and college speakers have said that this is one of the best clinics in the nation. I am hoping that you are able to take something from this year’s clinic and go back to your school to make the young men in your
program better this coming year and for years to come. The theme for the 2016 clinic is “Prepare for the End” and it is
my hope that all of you set your goals high and start preparing for your team to reach Huntington Park.
My involvement on this board for the past 6 years has allowed me the opportunity to witness great improvements the association
has made. It is my honor to give back as Director of the 2016 State Clinic. The venue at the Hyatt Regency and Columbus
Convention Center is just one example of the first class operation we are here to witness. If there is anything that any of our
24 board members or the Hyatt personnel can do to make your experience more enjoyable, please let us know. Your board
is committed to making this a most enjoyable and rewarding experience, and represents you throughout the entire year.
We have the opportunity to recognize and honor five (5) of our own with their induction into our OHSBCA Hall of Fame this
weekend. I truly hope that you take the opportunity to attend our banquet on Friday at noon in the Ballroom to honor these
five great men who have given so much to their schools, community and our association. There are also many other awards
given to your peers and scholarships to the children of our members; you should not miss this banquet. I have taken great
pride in putting together a great lineup of clinic speakers who have a variety of messages that will help you “Prepare for
the End”. We continue to learn and seek out information and I feel that this year’s speakers will truly help all of us grow
our players and build a stronger program. The list of speakers for this year are:
Joe Wilkins-Tiffin University
Landon Powell- North Greenville University
Greg Beals- The Ohio State University
Rick Eckstein- University of Kentucky
Tom Collins- Texas High School Dr. Daniel B. Leonard- Chiropractor
Greg Lovelady-Wright State University
Craig Kyle- Jonathan Alder High School
Andy Tracy- Philadelphia Phillies
Dean Hansen- The Ohio State University
Jon Rustenhaven- Texas High School
Gary Henderson- University of Kentucky

Mike Deegan- Denison University
Fuller Smith- UT Arlington
John LaCorte- Otterbein College
Ryan Alexander- Grove City High School
Kris Knapp-Ontario HS

Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to recognize the entire OHSBCA Board of Directors for
their dedication and hard work to this organization. My sincere gratitude goes to the gentlemen who
have been on the Executive Board with me the past few years: Kevin Yoder, Trevor Thomas, Tom
Neubert, Rob Lavengood, Dave Hall, Dave Barrow, Scott Manahan, Ray Benjamin, Curt Karpinski,
Dave Burkett, Jeff Mielcarek, and Frank Gamble. Special thanks to my wonderful wife, Deanna,

Welcome from OHSBCA President, Kevin Yoder Welcome to the 2016 OHSBCA Clinic. It has been an honor to serve as president of the second largest state baseball coaches association in the country. My time on the board has helped me grow both as a person and as a coach. I have been fortunate to meet and learn from many great coaches throughout the state and the nation and make many new friends. It has been a very rewarding experience and I would encourage all coaches to get involved in their district and state associations. This year Don Schone has done a great job of putting together the clinic and Tom Neubert has worked hard lining up vendors for the exhibit hall. A special thanks goes out to all our Executive Board members and the district reps for the work you’ve done and most importantly for your professionalism that has made my time as president go so smoothly. Please take a minute to thank them for all the work they do throughout the year. Lastly, I want to thank our host the Hyatt Regency and all our sponsors who help make it possible for us to put on such a first class clinic and do many wonderful things for members and their players. Enjoy the weekend and good luck to all this spring! PAST PRESIDENTS, OHSBCA

Pitchers Preseason Competitive Training
“CREATE a QUALITY PITCHING STAFF of STRIKE THROWERS thru Competition”
- QUALITY PITCHING is the Foundation for Success in Baseball and can dominate the game. Goal of 10
strike outs per game.
- LEARNING to COMPETE CREATES QUALITY PITCHERS.
- COACH AND PITCHING STAFF MUST BE COMMITTED to this program. PLAYERS who pitch are
ALWAYS considered Pitchers 1st. Must complete the system, no matter the weather.
- String Strike Zones made from yellow seine twine. Pitchers throw through String Strike Zones daily.
- The charting system. Recommend the varsity candidates chart on Mondays and Thursdays. Underclassmen on
Tuesdays and Fri. On off days, work on curves balls, and change ups and slide steps out of stretch for 10-12
minutes. Throw through strings. Wednesdays dedicated to “Pitcher Fielding Practice” or “Pick Off” Moves
- PITCHERS COMPETE ….15 pitches per innings, followed by pitch out right and pitch out left.
- GRADABLE CHARTS are simply 2 numbered columns; one for strikes the other balls. (see sample) 1st
inning is always from wind up. The second inning from the stretch with pitcher assuming whatever count he
ended with in the first inning. Mark an “F” for fastball, “C” for curve, “Ch” for change up and “S” for slider in
proper column. When, there is either a strike out or a walk….. a slash is made through that number and a big
K or W is marked on the chart. When a chart is completed…… the partner counts the strike outs vs walks. He
adds up the number of fastballs for strikes, curves for strikes and the number of change ups for strikes. There is
built in pressure to out perform partner.
- CATCHERS: use appropriate stance for wind up vs stretch. Catchers call for pitch outs right and and left,
when the 15 pitches are up. Catchers work on “footwork” on pitch out.
- COACHING ANALYSIS: The coach needs to GRADE the charts daily. Areas of concern: [ ] starting every
batter off with FASTBALL [ ] too many Fastballs or too few Change Ups. Write comments and always reward
great performances with A+
- COMPILE on going records so that PITCHERS PERFORMANCES are compared over 6 weeks. LET the
STUDENT BODY, see the CHARTS and the Records, to enhance the pressure to compete.
- PROGRESSION

Greg Wilker – Milbury Lake High School
Greg Wilker is a 1979 graduate of Coldwater High School where he played
baseball for Hall of Fame coach Lou Brunswick as well as football. Greg
graduated from Wright State University in 1983 with a Bachelor’s degree
in Comprehensive Business Education.
With the 2015-2016 season, Greg begins his 33rd year of teaching and
coaching at Lake High School. As the head baseball coach for 31 years,
the Flyers have compiled a record of 536-320. This includes 8 League
championships, 19 Sectional championships, 6 District championships,
and 1 Regional championship. He is very proud that numerous players
have developed a love for the game of baseball, having gone on to play the
sport in college or become a coach or an umpire to pass the game along to
younger players. Additionally, Greg has been a Varsity Assistant Football
coach for 30 years at Lake High School.
Coach Wilker has been blessed to have his wife Linda be his best friend
and greatest supporter for the last 31 years. Greg’s parents and siblings instilled in him a love for sports and a
competitive spirit. Moreover, they taught him that sports are about fun, sportsmanship and team accomplishments,
not just the numbers on the scoreboard.
Greg feels fortunate to be part of a staff and community who love baseball and work extremely hard to maintain
excellence. The achievements of the Lake Baseball program for more than three decades may be attributed to the
caring community, supportive administrators, long time dedicated and loyal assistant coaches and the fine young
men who work diligently to be successful on and off the field.

OHIO HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION 2015 ASSISTANT COACH OF THE YEAR WINNERS The OHSBCA Executive Board accepts nominations through the senior district representatives. Congratulations to these assistant coaches who have helped develop their program throughout the year. Nominations for 2016 Assistant Coach of the Year will be due by June 1, 2016 to your senior district representative. East Assistant Coach of the Year – Tyler Buchanan – John Glenn High School Tyler Buchanan has been with the John Glenn baseball program for the past six years. He was the JV coach for the first five years and served as the varsity assistant last year. During his time here our program has flourished. He brings enthusiasm and toughness with him every day. He graduated in 2003 and was a senior my first year as head coach at JGHS. Tyler works with our infielders and pitchers and is constantly researching and implementing drills to develop our players to their full potential. During games he coaches first and calls our pitches. After games and during the off season he works on the field. He spends countless hours and money improving our field. He works in Columbus and drives to New Concord for practice every day. Tyler is married to his wife Kelli and has two children, Blaise and Briley. Southwest Assistant Coach of the Year – Joe Molony – Mason High School Joe has coached high school baseball for over 25 years and been part of numerous championship seasons, including two state titles. In terms of preparing our program to be successful on the field, Joe has moved us forward in many ways. He is our varsity pitching coach and program pitching coordinator. He has been instrumental in creating a program wide philosophy and approach that has proved to be very successful. In addition to his pitching duties, Joe has led our base running instruction, helping to create an aggressive mentality on the bases. Joe’s impact on our program has gone far beyond the field. He has been instrumental in several culture impacting initiatives as well. Lastly, Joe’s commitment of time and energy can’t be measured and as a head coach it’s so valuable to me. Simply put, our program wouldn’t be anywhere close to where it is today without Joe and his influence. Southeast Assistant Coach of the Year – Steve Miller – Trimble Local High School Steve has been coaching with me for 15 years. Steve was my high school coach in the late 70s. He has coached at the high school, American Legion, and college summer teams. He is the best teacher of baseball fundamentals that I know. Our success at Trimble Local is greatly due to Steve and his compassion for the game of baseball and the kids of Trimble Local. Steve and his wife Peggy have two children, Amanda and Zach. They are also the proud grandparents of seven grandchildren....all boys. Steve Miller exemplifies what this award is all about. Northeast Assistant Coach of the Year – Jeff Luca – Twinsburg High School Coach Luca has been an assistant coach at Twinsburg for the last 9 years. He joined our program after spending 14 years at Solon High School where he is presently employed. Coach Luca has one of the highest baseball IQ’s I have ever been around in my 25 plus years as a head coach. But that is not why he is so valuable to our program, that comes from the type of man, mentor, coach, and person he is to our young men that are looking for guidance in so many realms of their lives. He is always there for our young men with baseball as well as their development as a person. He carries himself in such a positive manner that it models the behavior that we want out of our Twinsburg baseball players. Coach Luca’s addition to our program has had such a positive effect on the entire program and the baseball community. I cannot say enough about what a major influence Coach Luca has been on our young men as well as making the rest of our staff better at what we are trying to accomplish. He is a great man and coach! Central Assistant Coach of the Year – Jerry Thorp – Lakewood High School th
Jerry (Coach JT) is entering his 24 season as Varsity Assistant coach after graduating in 1990 and playing for his father Don, the longtime and legendary coach of the Lancers. His first 13 seasons were spent as a volunteer assistant before becoming a paid coach in the 2006 season. He works diligently to help each player at the highest level possible both on the field and in the classroom, staying in touch with their teachers and checking on grades even though he doesn’t teach. He is an integral part of fundraising efforts for the entire baseball program and teams. Jerry enters all game statistics and performs many off the field duties. He stays involved with the Lakewood Youth Baseball program and teams and coached our summer Babe Ruth teams for 20 years. He also helped kick start the Lakewood Alumni baseball game and festivities in the summer of 2014 with the help of a few former players. Jerry’s passion, enthusiasm, commitment and dedication to make our program continually better goes beyond the field and makes him very deserving of this award. He has been a part of winning 3 state titles in 1993, 1994, & 2005 as well as the many other successes of the Lakewood Lancer Baseball program. Jerry resides in Hebron, and has a daughter LaShelle (7) and son Blaydan (5). Northwest Assistant Coach of the Year – Rick Bowerman – Seneca East High School Rick Bowerman has been an assistant coach at Seneca East for over twenty years. For several years, Coach Bowerman worked as a volunteer devoting his time and energies without having a supplemental contract. He has assisted at all levels of the program including head freshman coach, head junior varsity coach, and assistant varsity coach. His knowledge of the game has been instrumental to the success of the program at Seneca East. For five years he was a head coach at Clyde High School before returning to Seneca East to be an assistant on my staff. I have valued his expertise in all areas of the game. As an assistant coach, Rick can be placed in charge of anything involving our program. He has done all our stats electronically for the last several years, has been involved in all our fundraising activities, and is presently the president of our local community baseball program. A nicer, kinder person would be difficult to find and I am extremely pleased and proud to nominate my assistant, my friend and colleague, for Assistant Coach of the Year. 41

2015 Season Highlights
Winning the 2015 state championship was a fantastic experience!! We returned 13 seniors from our 2014 state final four team and they led us from the first day of
conditioning with one goal in mind—to be champs. Their focus was to be champs in everything that they did during their day, their week and their season. And they lived
it along with our 13 juniors and one sophomore. This group worked together to play a tough schedule, battle adversity, and gel into Moeller’s eighth state championship
squad. After losing our first game of the year before travelling to Georgia for a spring break tournament, we went on to win our next 14 games as all facets of our game
came together and we played as one. I am blessed to have had those 13 seniors commit themselves to excellence every day we played or practiced and to graduate as
state champions. A big thank you goes out to my coaching staff and their commitment to the Moeller baseball program—Andy Nagel, Tony Maccani, Jason Cisper, Mike
Maundrell, Marc Marini, Kevin Dusold, Dave Cydrus, Ron Roth, Larry Heinz and Mike Cameron. A bigger thank you goes to my wife, Leslie, and two boys, Drew and
Alex for the sacrifices they make to allow me to coach every spring.

2015 Highlights
Winning the State title was very rewarding for the Defiance baseball program as this is only the third time in history (1992, 2013), but our second in three years. This team
finished 3rd in our league (Western Buckeye League), which was our worst finish since 1996. This made this season very rewarding and special. We had 10 seniors on the
team and six of them were full-time players. Each and everyone of those seniors new their role and were major contributors throughout the season.
The players were the main reason this team was able to accomplish what they did, but if it wasn’t for our coaching staff this could not have happened. I would like to
thank our assistant coaches, Rick Weaver, Braondon Fisher, Bryn Lehman, Justin Sonnenberg, Bryan Flory, Kevin Connor, and Shane Coleman. I would also like to thank
my wife Deanne and 3 kids, Chayse, Cassidy, and Calvin for allowing me to spend so much time with our great game of baseball.

Played a schedule that included eight teams that qualified for regional play.
Outscored opponents 35-4 in seven tournament games.
Had four shutouts in tournament play.
Captured the Crusaders third state championship since 2008.
We had great leadership from the senior class. This was a “team” on and off of the field. They represented our school, their families, and the community with class and
pride. This team trusted in each other and realized they all had a job to do and they did it. It was a group that was good in the classroom as well.
We had three outstanding assistant coaches in Dan Massarelli, Brian Beck, and Tyler Weisel. All three of them were great Crusader players and I had the good fortune to
coach them.
We had great support from our administration, faculty and staff. A special thanks goes out to Father Robert Kaylor, the President and CEO of our school. He has done so
much for our school for over 40 years.
We had very faithful support from our parents. They all became a family along with the amazing Crusader fan base. Our Booster Club is outstanding and gives great
support to all of our athletic programs.
I would like to personally thank Jerry Snodgrass and the OHSAA staff along with the staff of the Clippers. They ran a first class tournament, the best anywhere in the
country!

2015 Season Highlights
When I talk about our 2015 season, defense, experience and mental toughness are reasons that helped us win the Division IV State
Title.
We outscored our 8 tourney opponents 48-7. We committed just four errors in the post-season. We had three pitchers combine on five shutouts and an ERA of 0.83. We
did not allow a run in the final 25 innings of our journey. Offensively, we had 10 different batters contribute an RBI.
After winning the Central District Tourney we had to escape two classic extra inning wins at Beavers Field in Lancaster. We nipped 9th ranked Paint Valley 2-1 in nine
innings, then slipped past top-ranked Berlin Hiland 5-4 in 12 innings. In the Hiland game, the score was 4-4 after the first inning.
In our State Tourney wins over second-ranked Ft Recovery (4-0) and Berlin Center Western Reserve (6-0) we played with confidence and maturity to back the pitching
efforts of first team All-Ohioans Gabe Morris and Rob Engle. In the final win over Western Reserve, Engle pitched a 3-hitter with 7 strikeouts. The other 14 putouts
defensively came via ground balls, popups or tag outs within the infield.
I am extremely proud of our 2015 team and how they managed some tough situations along the tourney trail and win our school’s 8th OHSAA Baseball State
Championship.

The 26 victories in 2015 are the most in a season at Benjamin Logan and the three losses tied the 2007 team for the
fewest in a season. Our team dropped two games in the Louisville Prep Baseball Report Super Prep Series in early
April and then ran off 23 consecutive wins, a school record. We were also able to defend our 2014 Central Buckeye
Conference Mad River Division Championship by going 16-0 and continuing our consecutive conference wins streak
to its current 20 games, a school record. Our pitching staff threw 12 shutouts and only allowed 40 runs during the season, for a 0.99 ERA, all school
records. Our players also established school records for ERA (Austin Cline 0.27) and strikeouts (Zane Collins 123). We had nine players earn Conference First Team Honors, four earn Miami Valley Baseball Coaches’ Association honors and two players earn First Team All Ohio.
Our team consisted of seven seniors – Brady Bechtel (1st Team CBC), Austin Cline (1st Team CBC, CBC POY, 1st Team MVBCA, MVBCA POY, 1st
Team All Ohio and Mizuno All Ohio, playing at the University of Dayton), Todd Coleman (1st Team CBC), Zane Collins (1st Team CBC, 1st Team
MVBCA, 1st Team All Ohio, playing at Wright State University), Tyler Tevis (1st Team CBC), TJ Fink and Josh Hill. One Junior, Spencer Bycynski and
four Sophomores Nick Brown (1st Team CBC), Konner Caudill (1st Team CBC, 2nd Team MVBCA), Josh Whitten (1st Team CBC, 2nd Team MVBCA)
and Trey Wilson (1st Team CBC).
Our coaching staff of Doug Rutan, Mark Himmeger and Bob Stierhoff was also instrumental in accomplishing so much this past season.
