Augsburg University Baseball Skills Camp December
Augsburg University Baseball Skills Camp December 29th, 2017 Noon – 3 pm Registration Form (Ages 15+) Player’s Name ______________________________________
Camp Philosophy: Have you ever wanted to experience what a college baseball practice is like? If so, then this is your camp! For three hours campers will be learning and executing college-level baseball drills in a practice-like structure. Current Augsburg coaches and players will be running the drills and instructing the players. Campers will “practice with a purpose” as they improve their baseball ability and see if they can match the skills of a collegiate ballplayer. There will be position-specific defensive drills, a heavy focus on hitting, and a choice between pitching work or bunting and base running.

Leading the Squad! Keith Bateman - Head Coach (14 years) Bateman has been the architect of a revival of fortunes for the Augsburg baseball program during his tenure. Taking a team that had gone 18-53-2 in the previous two seasons (9-24-2 in 2003, 9-29 in 2002), Bateman's Auggies finished 16-22 in his first year in 2004, then went 24-18 in 2005, qualifying for the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference postseason playoffs for the first time, where they finished second. Bateman was named MIAC Co-Coach of the Year in 2005. The Auggies returned to the conference playoffs in the 2010 season, finishing second, and again in 2013. A three-time All-MIAC selection (1996-98) at Bethel, Bateman has compiled over 15 years as a coach in the MIAC. He is also an instructor for the Minnesota Twins Training Camps.

A two-year captain, he earned All-Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference honors twice and All-Central Region honors three times. Lieser was named to the Daktronics Division II AllAmerica honorable mention squad.
