Hi There! Welcome.
My name is Ian Macdonald.
I serve as the Pitching Coach & Recruiting Coordinator at Indiana Wesleyan University.
Previously, I served as an Assistant Coach & Recruiting Coordinator at the University of Charleston (WV) and Volunteer Assistant Coach – Pitching Coach at Grove City College (PA).
One of the things that I love most about my job is player evaluation and recruiting.
Over the years, much of what I have learned about evaluation & recruiting has come from conversations with other college coaches and scouts.
Individuals who have been generous with their time, willing to share their knowledge and experiences.
Over the years, I have found publicly available information & resources on these topics to be limited.
The goal of this project is twofold; to (a) to document/catalog what I am learning about evaluation, recruiting, & decision making, and (b) share information & shed insight into how we, as a program, identify, evaluate, and recruit.
Over time, additional resources related to evaluation & recruiting will be added to this site.
Thank you to our Head Coach, Rich Benjamin, for supporting this project.
I hope you find the information & resources on this website useful.
