Hello Baseball Fans, Please be advised that the Atlanta Wood Bat Instructional League (AWBIL) and the 2ND Annual HBCU Baseball All Star Revue will honor former Alabama State University Baseball coach Larry Watkins for professional services rendered to ASU, Southwestern Athletic Association, and largely for the development and mentoring provided to young men for over 30 years.

Last year's game was the inaugural event comprised of players with no remaining collegiate eligibility. The charter members/players of the 2010 ALL STAR INVITATIONAL resided near the Atlanta metropolitan area or neighboring states, representing the CIAA, MEAC, SEAC, SIAC, SWAC. With the players mere love for the game, the concept of a HBCU ALL STAR BASEBALL GAME was turned into a reality, and those players were part of HBCU baseball history. AWBIL's mission is mentoring inner city athletes that desire to earn a college education and play collegiate baseball. In furtherance, AWBIL serves as a learning center for aspiring interns seeking practical experience as well as on the job training in the arena of sports administration, sports marketing, sports journalism and sports audio and radio broadcast.
