3.27.20 Elms College Baseball Coach John Raiola

One of my former college coaches and I spoke about all things baseball and life. Coach Raiola has one of the most impressive baseball minds I've been around, and his ability to find new information and relay it to his players in an effortless manner was always something I admired. He also manages the Valley Blue Sox, of the NECBL in the summer. "Johnny", as many know him as, played a huge role in putting Western New England baseball back on the map. He is now the head baseball coach at Elms College, and will no doubt find success and greatly improve that program.
