ABOUT US
Established 6 years ago, under the direction of Garett Teel and his instructors, the Ravens have become the benchmark in Bergen County for quality baseball instruction. A true test of our success can be found with the results of our first “graduating” team. The players from our very first Ravens team, started as new 13Us in 2006 are now all high school seniors this year and their dedication and hard work at baseball has really paid off. The following boys have already committed to college to play baseball, some receiving scholarships and most getting into better schools then they could have without baseball: Nick Bruno- Elon University, SC, Rob Caliento-Lafayette, Eric Flanagan-University of Richmond, Tyler Fortanascio-University of Southern New Hampshire, John Gandolfo-Marshall, Doug Licitra, Saint Josephs, Philadelphia, Phil McGovern- Williams, Kevin Nitsche-Rowan, Dylan Reid-Florida Institute of Technology, Toby Schwartz-Lafayette. We are very proud of what they have done and also proud of the roll the Ravens have played in their development as baseball players and young men.
The focus of the Ravens program is to build confidence and success on the baseball field by teaching the players the fundamentals of the game along with sportsmanship and teamwork. The teams stay together into high school, allowing the boys to receive consistent instruction from season to season.
