These college coaches will be looking for players to join their team. It is a great way to get exposure and build contacts with college coaches. 

Which Colleges will be played? 

Nationally ranked colleges like Wabash Valley (IL), Chattanooga State (TN), Indiana Tech University (IN), Northwestern Ohio University (OH), Rio Grande University (OH), Sienna Height University and more.
