Hart School Alum 🤝 Hart School Students

Where in the world was the Hart School this summer? SRM student, Will Shean (‘27) interned with the Bunt Cakes of Northern Virginia’s Potomac League—a collegiate summer baseball league—under Hart School and JMU Baseball alum, Ky Parott (‘17)!

While with the Bunt Cakes Will was mainly in charge of player scouting. He tracked statistics and spray charts for over 200 players using Excel and created detailed scouting reports for our team to use during games. Will also managed in-game pitch selection through PitchCom (a wireless, encrypted electronic earpiece system used to transmit pitch types and locations between coaches and players), using the data he collected to help the Cakes pitchers make informed decisions and gain an advantage over opposing hitters.

“This experience allowed me to combine data analysis, technology, and decision-making in a fast-paced environment.” - Will Shean (‘27)
