While attending a Stanford Baseball camp in July, Miramonte junior Greg Austin, Matador pitcher, was selected to play baseball for the American team in the upcoming Goodwill Series, which will take place this coming December in Australia and New Zealand. Greg will play on a team made up of high school players who were selected from across the country.
This is the 25th year headed to the land "down under." The journey helps prepare players for a future career as a baseball player, either at the collegiate or professional levels, as they need to be in top physical and mental condition in order to compete every day. The State Team Australian baseball players are the best in their country. Many are professional players and Olympic team players.
Staying with host families not only prepares players for their future host family endeavors during collegiate summer leagues and minor league baseball seasons, but it also allows them to appreciate a new and exciting culture, different customs, cuisine, and communication as well.
