"Our son Matt committed to Yale to play baseball and it simply would not have been possible without our advisor, Lou Birch. We are thankful to Lou Birch for his guidance throughout the recruiting process and his commitment to sending Matt’s profile to coaches around the country. Matt had strong academics and has achieved success on the mound, but he was not on Yale’s radar until Lou sent his profile. Our goal was for Matt to be able to play the game he loves at the best academic school possible…we never dreamed it would be Yale! Lou was on the ball! It is clear that he has developed a reputation with coaches around the county who trust him. As I parent, I am grateful for the way he professionally guided us through this process. We highly recommend Lou to every student-athlete we know who dreams of playing at the next level. We are so grateful and excited for the next chapter!" [NOTE: Matt committed to Yale University]
