Coach’s Corner: Frank Holbrook – Building Brown Baseball the Right Way

In this episode of Coach’s Corner, Walter Beede sits down with Frank Holbrook, the new Head Coach at Brown University, to discuss his vision for rebuilding the program, the importance of continuity, and the future of Ivy League baseball.

Coach Holbrook shares insights from his time at Northeastern, explaining why success starts with pitching depth, player development, and staff consistency. He breaks down Brown’s renewed commitment to investing in its coaching staff and creating a culture built on high school recruits — not quick-transfer fixes.

You’ll also hear valuable advice for families on preparing high school players for the transition to college, managing workload, and understanding the recruiting process in the Ivy League — including pre-reads, academic balance, and how Brown’s open curriculum gives student-athletes a unique advantage.
