"Coach Nall and his program was hands down the best college exposure for Madison.  He was tirelessly calling coaches and others to come to our tournaments to watch Madison and his other players.  If you are a parent wanting your son to get college exposure, the Upstate Mavericks program is a great option. And as a coach, he has all the attributes; a disciplinarian, motivator, instructor, as well as being very well known inside the sport."

- John Younginer - Madison Younginer's father - Clemson University Commit and 2009 7th Round Draft pick of the Boston Red Sox
"I, as a parent, really appreciated how well organized the Mavericks baseball team was run. The schedule was posted early so we could plan out our lives well in advance, which is worth more than words can describe. The kids had great exposure, but better yet they had fun with their teammates and the coaches."


- Pete Diamaduros,  father of Konstantine Diamadouros - Wofford College
"I really enjoyed the time I spent playing with the Mavericks and the relationships we built throughout the season.  I would recommend this organization to any player looking for a quality place to play."
