USA Baseball National Team Identification Series Tryout

USA Baseball is hosting tryouts for the 13's, 15's, and 17's this summer in an attempt to identify potential players for their national teams. We encourage all of our Heat players that fit the age requirements that USA Baseball has posted in their information to consider trying out for the Gulf Coast Texas teams that will go to their events in September. We had many of our Heat players selected for the 17U Gulf Coast Texas team that went to the 17U showcase last year. Phil Cross and John Ruiz endorse this event as another excellent opportunity for players in the Houston Heat organization to gain exposure and possible inclusion on one of the USA Baseball National Teams.
