Clint Barmes

Clint was born and raised in Vincennes, Indiana.  He was recruited to go to Onley Central Illinois to play basketball and baseball. 

 

After he received his Associates of Science, he transferred to Indiana State University to play baseball.  His first season he was drafted by the Colorado Rockies in the 10th round.  This lead to 17 years of pro-ball and 13 years at the major league level.  During this time, he was a part of World Series and 4 playoff berths. 

 

His goal moving forward with the Northside Dirt Devils is to help build a program for mental toughness - what it takes to get through failure as well as high successes.  Also, he plans to teach major league fundamentals to help further young athletes to develop into what colleges are looking for.  His ultimate goal is to establish well rounded athletes and get them to the college level.
