DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.- Bethune Cookman University head baseball Coach, Jonathan Hernandez, has been selected to the coaching staff of the USA Baseball 15U National Team Training Camp coaching staff in Tempe, AZ.
 
64 athletes will compete for one of 20 spots on the final 15U National Team roster from August 14-23 at Tempe Diablo Stadium in Tempe, Arizona. Selected athletes were invited to Training Camp based on their performance at one of four USA Baseball sanctioned events, including the 14U and 15U National Team Championships. Thirty of this year's Training Camp selections participated in the event in North Carolina, while 15 competed in Arizona. Thirteen other athletes were chosen from the USA Baseball National Team Identification Series (NTIS) Champions Cup last August, and four earned invitations from last year's 13U/14U Athlete Development Program (ADP).
 
"Anytime you are selected to represent USA it is an absolute honor, and one that is not taken for granted," Hernandez said. "This is an opportunity of a lifetime and being able to represent Bethune Cookman University and our baseball program while working with the best players amongst this age group in Tempe, AZ it will be great."
 
Hernandez has previous experience with USA Baseball, serving as a Scouting Task Force Member evaluating talent for the 14U and 15U National Teams. Hernandez also served as the pitching coach for USA Baseball's National Team Development Program (NTDP) in 2015.
