Coach Jamie Finnical

Hey guys I’m Jamie! 

I am 24 years old, born and raised in Baltimore.  As a former Division 1 pitcher at the University of South Alabama I am super excited to be working at eShore. I have extensive knowledge on the recruiting process as well as what it is truly like to get to the next level.  Throughout my time in college, I majored in Exercise Science/Nutrition and Sports Management, and I have had the honor to coach a lot since my career has come to an end.  I have spent the past few years traveling and can really provide a wealth of information on softball, colleges, and overall training.

I truly want to be a mentor as well as a coach to the youth in Maryland. I am beyond excited to be working alongside Eric to really bring a new level of coaching to this area.
