Show Notes
All things hitting on this week’s ABCA Podcast with our guest, Maryland recruiting coordinator, Matt Swope. Coach Swope is a Maryland alum and he has a lot of passion and pride in the school. Offense has been a hallmark of the Maryland program since Coach Swope came back to his alma mater. The 2021 Maryland squad led the Big Ten in home runs, total bases, stolen bases, and hit by pitches. The Terps finished second in runs, rbi, on-base percentage, slugging percentage and base on balls. In this episode we cover coaching offense, recruiting, player development, what he learned as a professional hitter, why working in the real world first has helped him as a coach and his personal relationship to raising money for cancer research.
