About Me

Growing up in central New Jersey, I "lived" for the game of baseball. I grew up on a 120 acre farm as an only child, so imagination was key. I hit millions of small rocks with broomsticks, fielded tennis balls off concrete steps I broke intentionally, pitched into small holes w nets I created inside of our barn (each 1' x 1'). I also pitched 5x week (and "no," pitch count was ever talked about years ago) And of course, I'll never forget being at the East Brunswick batting cages for 25+ hours a week. Sometimes my gloves would be soaked in blood when I was finished. And you know what? I loved it! I had only ONE goal. To play Major League Baseball. My Senior year in High School, I hit .527, with 17 Home Runs and 39 Runs Batted In. Unfortunately, due to grades/test scores and maturity, I needed to seek the JUCO Route,

As JUCO finished, I was a PO, and soon I'd be transferring to the University of Kentucky, after several Pro tryouts and foregoing the MLB draft. It was in Lexington, where tragedy would strike. A "career-ending" broken leg and three surgeries later. For years I searched for answers. I even played professional golf for a while to fill the void of competition. And believe me when I say this, "dotting up" multiple pitches and hitting a "95 mph FB," is much easier than consistently striking a stationary golf ball. Trust me. After the birth of my son in 2002, his life gave "mine" purpose, and ironically, the game I had once lost, had returned, to save "my life." I started back teaching baseball when my son took an interest. I coached all of his teams, started instruction with other players and quickly got into travel ball. College Baseball Recruiting would soon follow, where I've helped a countless numbers of student-athletes fulfill the same dreams I once had.... including my own son, who just committed a few months ago, to one of the top baseball programs in the country. Now......as for that void.

Client Testimonials

Since I started out as a Baseball Instructor in 2005, I have worked with hundreds of student-athletes to improve physical skills and thought processes which increase their athletic performance. Gaining strength and flexibility with hours of practice is always a necessity, but if your mind isn't working properly, the aforementioned really won't matter. At the end of the day, it's about having "ALL" the necessary tools. 

At first, I honestly wasn't sure about this. I'm a natural skeptic and like most parents, I think I know more about baseball and recruiting than someone who does it for a living. By the way, I should point out that I'm an Accountant who barely made the high school baseball team. Jeff was very impressive once I finally sat back and let him take the lead. The number of colleges he had wanting my son was astonishing. Sending my other 2 kids to him in a month. Thanks for everything Jeff!

HOW TO GET THERE

"You must be willing to do the things today, others don't do, in order to have the things tomorrow, others wont have!"  Les Brown

FREE CONSULTATION

Call now to receive your "free," CSAA (College Student-Athlete Assessment). You "will need," athleticism, a solid skillset, good grades, test scores and exceptional character to be considered. I accept NOTHING LESS into my program. 

 

Limited spots are available, so knowing a player (and family) is a great fit, is essential to everyone's success. 

 

Remember, you "must be evaluated  and acceptedto join R2R.

 

And please keep in mind (as many struggle  with this time and time again), that I will never, under any circumstance,  recommend an obvious "lower-level" division player to some Power 5 Program. Actions such as these will  only hurt future players opportunities, not to mention college coach relationships that have taken years to establish. Being "realistic" is the key to success. 

GET RECRUITED!

The time has come! All the hours spent studying, the homework, quizzes, exams and countless number of projects completed. The thousands of hours practicing. All the swings and ground balls that "nobody" ever saw you take. It's about to pay off. Or is it? One frightening statistic is; over 20% of student-athletes (that could've played "somewhere") will never be recruited, especially now, with Covid-19 creating overloaded rosters across this country. And unless you're ranked, "Top 500" in the country, expecting Travel Ball to lead to your recruitment will most likely result in disappointment. Playing Travel Ball "is" an absolute necessity. Just set your expectations wisely. Playing with different teammates, against solid teams will only make you better. There's no way around that. As for getting to the "next level," truth be told, there are many more athletes capable of playing college baseball than there are roster spots available. So why would you take such a risk? With over 800 College Baseball Coach connections across the country, (D1, D2, D3, NAIA and JUCO), R2R will allow your investment to do exactly what it was meant to do.......Produce results, GUARANTEED! We can't go back and change the past. But we still have the power to change their future.

FRESHMAN AND SOPHOMORES

CALL FOR PRICING

As a freshman or sophomore, projection can be a little more difficult to predict, but if you already have the skills, size and academics, it can land you with verbal commits much sooner than those who wait too long. The earlier you begin the recruiting process, the better your chances for scholarship money. The longer you wait, the more unlikely it becomes.

JUNIORS

Ball Game_edited_edited.jpg

CALL FOR PRICING

As a Junior in High School, you should "now" be on a college's radar. If you are not getting "multiple" phone calls/texts, "directly" from college coaches, you are NOT being recruited AND you are about to get way behind in the recruiting process. If this sounds familiar, it's time to get moving. You should typically expect some resistance when choosing a college at this point (money, distance, filled rosters, etc.).

SENIORS

CALL FOR PRICING

As a Senior in High School, if you're still NOT receiving those direct calls/texts from college coaches, we have a serious problem. Several rosters have been filled and a good portion of scholarship money has been exhausted for the following year. However, there are still some schools out there where you can play. They may not be your 1st, 2nd or 3rd choices, but there are still a few opportunities that would extend your baseball career and allow you to receive a great education. 

RECRUITING MEDIA

Note: I'm also happy to update videos, keeping them current until the student-athlete is recruited.
