NAIA World Series Coaches

ABCA Podcast

This week’s ABCA Podcast episode was recorded on-location at the NAIA World Series in Lewiston, Idaho. Lewiston has hosted the NAIA World Series for 22 years and the town always rallies around the event. The night prior to the opening game, the ABCA and City of Lewiston host a youth clinic, which had over 400 kids in attendance this year and we thank the coaches and players from the competing teams that took part in making the youth clinic a success once again!

In this episode, we're joined by Billy Berry (Tennessee Wesleyan), Jonathan Burton (Reinhardt), Adrian Dinkel (Southeastern), Bobby Halford (William Carey), Joe McDonald (Arizona Christian), Bill Neale (Kansas Wesleyan), Brett Neffendorf (Indiana Southeast), Jeremy Sheetinger (Georgia Gwinnett), and Brad Shelton (Cumberland) to discuss their season's and NAIA baseball as a whole.

National Champion, Larry Mahoney of Hope International will be joining the ABCA Podcast in a future episode to discuss his program's first NAIA national title!
