Leo Young has spent over 30 years developing high-achieving baseball player. In the 1990s, he coached at Tallahassee Community College, where the Eagles earned national recognition for their consistent success. He later scouted for the Seattle Mariners through the early 2000s and was part of the Team USA training staff that traveled Europe to help grow the game through the European Baseball Initiative.
