Barrel City Hitting Instruction
About
Coach Manzo enters his 24th season working with players of all ages. Previously he had a successful 19-year run with the Berlin American Legion baseball program where he won six zone championships, two state titles, and one Northeast Regional title resulting in an invitation to the American Legion Baseball World Series in Fargo, ND.
During his tenure he has mentored and coached several players who have played professional baseball, notably Jesse Carlson (Toronto Blue Jays) and Matt Carasiti (SF Giants). Along with his youth baseball accomplishments, Coach Manzo has 10 years college coaching experience at Quinnipiac University (3) and Wesleyan University (7). He is most proud of having assisted over 70 high school-aged players in continuing their baseball careers in the college ranks.
Coach "Manz," a former 4-year catcher at QU leads the program working with students ages 7 to 18. Recently Coach Manzo obtained his Masters in Organizational Leadership from Quinnipiac University. Also, he is a Driveline Certified Youth Coach.
I enjoy working with players of all
ages. I am a continuous learner and have adapted to all of the new technology in the game of baseball.
