Featured in this week’s All Star Baseball Academy Instructor Spotlight is Dennis McKimm. Dennis is an Instructor at ASBA Downingtown, where he gives lessons on hitting and fielding. Dennis has been working for ASBA since December of 2011.
After a successful high school career at Cameron County High School in Emporium, PA, he went to Mansfield University. After a year there, he transferred to Penn State Altoona, where he excelled from 2002-2005. He started all 3 years at second base, and batted .363 for his collegiate career. In 2003 he was a 2nd Team All-AMCC selection, and was a 1st Team All-AMCC selection in 2004. After graduating college in 2005, Dennis went on to work at The Glen Mills Schools, where he also coached from 2006-2011.
When we asked Dennis what he enjoys about giving lessons, he said “I believe in improving minor details to the mechanics of a hitter or fielder for the best overall results. I enjoy being part of the mechanical and physical development of a player. It is always great to see the final result of a player having a successful career in baseball.”
Off the field, Dennis is an avid outdoorsman.
