WHAT:  When it comes to the parents who are involved in the collegiate athletic recruiting process, Jack Renkens has seen it all.  From his days as a high school coach, administrator and teacher through his time as coach and Athletic Director at an award-winning NCAA Division II school, Jack has witnessed the game from all sides.  Jack founded Recruiting Realities, an organization dedicated to exploding the myths and presenting the realities of athletic recruiting to student-athletes, their families, coaches and school counselors.

 

WHO:  Jack’s highly sought after program has been featured at thousands of schools across the United States, on numerous television programs and at sports camps from coast to coast.  In addition, he is a weekly contributor to several major newspapers and magazines. His message about collegiate athletic recruiting is simple: “It’s a game … Know the rules.”

 

WHY:  High School student-athletes serious about continuing to play sports in college can never start too early, nor get too much help.  However, most students don’t know the recruiting game, NCAA rules or how to get matched with the best college for them.  Jack will clarify recruiting myths and provide tips to parents and students serious about taking their high school athletics to the next level.

Andrew Paul Sanchez died June 12, 2009. He was a great Ambassador to our community. There was never a time that Andy would not drop everything he was doing to help a friend. Andy had a lot of Friends!

Andy brought light into a dark room. Jovial, energetic, and wise. He is one of my sincerest inspirations and has been since the first time I walked in to the Castle Park gymnasium as a 7th grader and saw his name, picture, award, and poem about a lost friend in the trophy case.

Our small baseball community is a little bit dimmer now. 

Our condolences go out to his family and close friends; Andy IS pure Gold!
