Chris Whelan has a great resume – from claiming ESSC Offensive Player of the Year at Benet, to pre-season All-Big Ten at Iowa. NLLB has had several outstanding high school, college and even MLB players start their careers in the NLLB program! Nicky Lopez, current player for the Kansas City Royals, Jerry and Scott Hairston were MLB players, to name a few. NLLB is the perfect place to focus on skill development while fostering the love of the game of baseball. Our relationship with the White Sox has allowed training opportunities for skill development unparalled to other programs.
