Rob DiToma on Supplee: "Erik brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in the development of pitchers that he has coached at his various stops. Most recently at Columbia University, he became well known nationally with his ability to recruit talented baseball players from all over the country. The amount of success he has had in recruitment and development in the past helped lead Columbia to Ivy league championships and NCAA regional game victories. We are very lucky to have Erik on our staff."
