We would like to congratulate Akanni Owodunni on his commitment to the University of San Diego. Here is a highlight of his recruiting story from him and his mother. Good luck as a Torero!
College Decision:
Akanni: University of San Diego
Mother: University of San Diego
Why choose University of San Diego?
Akanni: Strong baseball program and academics; received large scholarship; location; coaches
Mother: Good balance of competitive baseball program with good development, solid academics and closer to home
What makes you excited about your future in college?
Akanni: Getting the opportunity to compete at a competitive baseball program
How much money do you estimate your family saving in college expenses over the entirety of your college career? (Includes, Athletic scholarships, Academic scholarships, & financial aid)
$250,000 over 4 years
What was your recruiting journey like before SportsForce?
Akanni: SportsForce knows a lot about recruiting and has many college connections
Mother: I think we as parents focused on getting help from Sportsforce with exposure and outreach to colleges but we realized that Sportsforce was also vital in helping us determine the best option and fit for our student athlete during the decision making process.
What did your personal recruiting advisor do that made a significant impact?
Akanni: A few interests from colleges; less knowledge in what to do for my recruiting
Mother: We had a vague idea of what to do for college exposure but were not at all familiar with how to communicate with coaches or the right events to attend given the wide array of tournaments, showcases, and camps.
Over the last 14 years, SportsForce has helped over 1,000 student-athletes and families successfully navigate the college recruiting and athletic scholarship process while saving families on average $80,000 in college expenses.
Our Mission at SportsForce Baseball:
We are on a mission to help our select number of qualified and evaluated players maximize their recruiting offers and make the best college decision.
Started by CEO & founder Andrew Beinbrink, SportsForce Baseball is a nationally recognized college recruiting advisory group with over 40 former college coaches, players, and MLB scouts in 10 different states.
During the last 11+ years, we’ve helped over 1,000 players make their college commitments.
Read below, why we are different from every recruiting group in the country.
Why SportsForce is Different:
* View our Home Page Video Unlike most recruiting companies, we do not just partner with anyone for our hands-on recruiting programs. Instead, we only partner with qualified players who meet our Five academic, athletic, and coachability selection factors.
We evaluate between 10,000-12,000 players each summer and fall at top showcases and selectively advise, and advocate for only a limited number of players each year by directly contacting college coaches to help them maximize recruiting offers.
Each of our expert college recruiters is limited to how many players they will advise so there is the best combination of hands-on guidance and personal recruiting outreach to college coaches.
Social Media Exposure: We also utilize our growing Twitter following at @SportsForceBB which is followed by over 500 NCAA D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and JC coaches nationwide and growing fast.
To Get Evaluated by Our Expert College Recruiting Staff:
Option 1: Complete our Recruiting Questionnaire
Option 2: Email us at scouting@sportsforceonline.com
Options 3: DM us on Instagram @SportsForceBB or Twitter @SportsForceBB and share recent video, stats, or measurables (velocity, 60, exit speed, pop time, etc…) for our scouts to evaluate.
