"2017 LHP Finds Perfect Home"

Cameron Guarino (baseball) | University of New Haven

As a freshman, when I first thought seriously about playing baseball in college, my AAU team brought in Brendan Kennedy from National Scouting Report to speak to us about the recruiting process. I knew being from Maine, which isn't considered the mecca of all things baseball and being a year younger than most 2017 recruits, it could be challenging to be recruited, especially to be seen outside of the state. With advice to get the best grades and SAT scores that I could, I signed with NSR and Brendan was by my side all through high school.

From attending my first camp at Johns Hopkins to visiting and attending camps at Northeastern, Boston College, Holy Cross, Dartmouth, Duke, UCONN and the Longhorns, Brendan was there each step of the way. As a young baseball player, there is an incredible amount of information to sift through. From major, to SAT scores, grades, velocity, coaches and more, there are many factors to consider.

Brendan answered all of our questions, watched my games, was actively involved and cared about me becoming not just a baseball player, but a well-rounded, happy, properly placed baseball player and person. As a result of guidance all through the years, I'm a straight A student with an 1850 on the SAT and I'm going to New Haven on a scholarship and will pitch there. I found the perfect fit for me all around, which was his advice from the start.

Thank you always Brendan. I recommend NSR to be beside you during your recruiting, because you only get recruited once and you want to get it right. Brendan was a champion for me each step of the way and I will always appreciate all his help. Get Charged Up!


"D1 Opportunity Due to NSR"

Brandon Hall (baseball) | Wagner College

We would like to thank NSR and Brendan Kennedy for helping our son achieve his dream of playing Division 1 Baseball. Our son Brandon will be catching for Wagner College starting in September 2017. It has been Brandon's dream to play baseball for a D-1 school and signing up with NSR was definitely instrumental in helping him realize that dream.

We signed on with Brendan and NSR when Brandon was a Freshman in High School. From that time on Brendan was available to answer any questions and give recommendations to help us through the recruiting process. At times the process was an emotional roller coaster and Brendan was there to support us at that time as well. Brendan worked tirelessly seeking out schools that needed a catcher for the 2017 season and Wagner was a match.

The recruiting process is far more complicated than one could imagine so we are truly grateful to Brendan and NSR for helping us make our way through it. We would definitely recommend that any family looking for their athlete to play at the College level work with NSR. Thank you again to both Brendan Kennedy and NSR.


"NSR Opened Many Doors for Us!"

Aube Brothers (baseball) | University of Tennessee at Martin

I am a mother of three sons who has worked with Brendan Kennedy to help us through the recruiting process for our sons to play college ball at the next level. Our 2016 graduating senior has been recruited with a scholarship at University of Tennessee at Martin to play baseball. I can honestly say without the guidance and support from NSR our process would not have been as easy as it was. Our oldest sons athleticism should have got him recruited alone but that's not how it works and we quickly learned that. NSR opened many doors for us that we would have never known of. We were so impressed with our first run with our oldest son that we decided to have Brendan help with our twin sophomore sons. The entire process of being recruited is very overwhelming but NSR has made this cumbersome task a very pleasant one. Having guidance and support goes a long way. Thank you Brendan for always being a phone call, text or email away morning noon or night! We greatly appreciated it all. Let the games begin and the search for our next two sons be equally as glorious.
