Introduction

Joe Raccuia Baseball Camps at Radford University are a great opportunity for high school and junior college prospects not only to showcase their talent and ability to college coaches but to improve as a player through the instructional segments of the camp.

The Radford University baseball staff is committed to providing a valuable experience to all prospects in which players will be able to learn about what it takes to be a baseball player and a student-athlete at the next level. Additionally, players will be evaluated by the RU staff, and evaluations will be available to all prospects upon request.
