Schneider Part of National Championship Summer Team

As most college baseball players spend their summers away from home looking to improve their skills in collegiate summer leagues across the country, Southeastern’s Justin Schneider was able to stay close to home. Schneider, who hails from Kenner, was able to represent the Big Easy as a member of the New Orleans Boosters.

The sophomore RHP got some work on the mound this summer after seeing limited time during the Lions 2009 season. Schneider had Tommy John surgery during the 2008 season in which he red shirted. Not only did he log some innings on the mound but Schneider helped the Boosters win the AAABA (All-American Amateur Baseball Association) National Championship. The Boosters defeated New Brunswick 9-0 in the championship game of the tournament which was held in Johnstown, PA.

Congrats to Justin and the 2009 New Orleans Boosters!
