Ohio State Baseball Buckeye Elite Skills & Prospect Camp

Ohio State Baseball will hold the Elite Skills & Prospects Camp on Wednesday, July 10th starting at 4 PM. This camp is designed to allow for prospective campers to both learn from and be coached by Ohio State coaching staff members and players, along with other hired coaches (likely other college coaches), and to also showcase their playing abilities at Bill Davis Stadium / Nick Swisher Field. This camp will also include a facilities tour and allow campers to be exposed to Ohio State Baseball program methods and philosophies.
Ohio State’s Damon Lessler will lead this camp as both the administrator and lead instructor. Lessler has more than a decade of experience working in Division I baseball as a coach, and currently serves as the Buckeyes’ Director of Baseball Operations/Recruiting & Player Development. Lessler, who has had previous coaching stops at Cal, Cal Poly, Southern Miss and other universities, uses his past experiences to serve and assist head coach Bill Mosiello with all aspects of day-to-day operations of the Ohio State program along with leading Buckeye Baseball Camps.
