Georgia Tech Baseball Head Coach Danny Hall and his staff will run the camp. The rest of the staff will be made up of Yellow Jacket players as well as some of the finest college and high school coaches in the area. We take pride in providing high quality instruction and supervision. Coach Hall is in his 17th season at Georgia Tech, having conducted camps every year.
Having spent his entire coaching career involved with winning programs, Danny Hall's tenure at Georgia Tech has been his most successful, as he is the all-time winningest baseball coach in Yellow Jacket history with 652 victories at the school. He has led Tech to the NCAA Tournament on 13 occasions and guided the Yellow Jackets to the College World Series in 1994, 2002 and 2006, the only head coach in the program's storied history to reach the promised land of Omaha.
Since Hall took over the program, Georgia Tech has averaged 43.5 wins per season, the ninth-highest figure in the nation over the last 15 years. In this decade alone he has directed the Yellow Jackets to two College World Series appearances, three Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament titles (2000, 2003, 2005) and three ACC regular season championships (2000, 2004, 2005) while averaging 44.3 wins per season.
Since Hall's arrival at Georgia Tech in 1994, a staggering 79 Yellow Jackets have been selected in the Major League Baseball Draft a total of 87 times, while 35 MLB Draftees have chosen to attend Georgia Tech to play for the Yellow Jacket skipper. Ten of his student-athletes have been selected in either the first or supplemental rounds, while he has coached 43 players that have been taken in the first 10 rounds of the MLB draft.
Hall's no-nonsense, professional approach to baseball has given his players the fundamentals they need to be successful after leaving Georgia Tech, as is indicated in the number of his former players that have appeared on Major League rosters. Current major leaguers Brandon Boggs and Marlon Byrd of the Texas Rangers, Kevin Cameron of the San Diego Padres, Nomar Garciaparra of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Matt Murton and Eric Patterson of the Chicago Cubs, Micah Owings of the Arizona Diamondbacks, Jay Payton of the Baltimore Orioles, Mark Teixeira of the Atlanta Braves and Jason Varitek of the Boston Red Sox all played for the Yellow Jacket skipper. Since his first head coaching job in 1988, Hall has coached no fewer than 18 players that have appeared on Major League rosters.
The success of Hall's former players in professional baseball is molded by their accomplishments at Tech, as his Yellow Jacket teams have advanced to 13 NCAA Regionals in his 15 years at the school. Georgia Tech has posted 33 NCAA victories since his arrival in 1994, winning regionals in 1994, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2005 and 2006 and super regionals in 2002 and 2006. The Yellow Jackets have posted a .500 or better record in Atlantic Coast Conference play every year since his arrival, and have finished third or better in the league in nine of his 15 seasons. Georgia Tech has been ranked as the top team in the country six times for a total of 22 weeks under Hall, and in five of the last nine seasons.
