    Dirk Baker is writing a book about one of the legends of the Philadelphia baseball scene - Kid Gleason.

    Guest: Kyle Davis (Head Coach at Holy Family) | Ep. 17

    Kyle Davis will make history when he takes to the diamond this fall as head coach of a new baseball program at Holy Family University.

    Davis joins HFU from former Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) member University of the Sciences (USciences), where he was the head coach from 2019-22 after previously spending one season as an assistant in 2014.

    In his first season at the helm of his alma mater, the Devils set Division II-era program records with 17 overall wins and 13 CACC victories, both of which were more than double the season prior.

    We discuss the building of a new program, his advice to players on choosing the right school, and the challenges of roster composition in a post-COVID world.
