Montana State Billings baseball coach Aaron Sutton does a superb job extolling the benefits of playing Division II athletics in this video piece recently produced by the good folks at MSUB.
Here's some of what you will find in Sutton's program: an emphasis on academics ... personal attention from the coaching staff on and OFF the field ... a welcoming environment in which to pursue your athletic and academic goals.
Plus: fly fishing tips are included!
There's much more, though (hint, see for yourself by clicking on the YouTube video below).
As I regularly travel around this expansive GNAC footprint (six states, two countries), I am able to witness first-hand the fruits of the labors of the men and women who have made careers as educators/coaches in the world of DII.
Like so many others in our great conference and division, Sutton stands out for his passion in his dual role as baseball coach/life coach.
Take a look and see for yourself.
