NJCAA Baseball Coaches Association Coaches Hall of Fame
Baseball has been a passion for Thomas Rogers throughout his adult life, and the NJCAA was one of many benefactors of his efforts. In 1993, the NJCAA Division II World Series found a home at USA Stadium in Millington, Tenn. Rodgers was a key leader in the coordination of the tournament and assisted teams in all phases while they were in Millington. He worked tirelessly to make sure the needs of all teams were met.
In addition, Rogers, along with NJCAA Hall of Famer John Daigle – Director of USA Stadium, volunteered his talents to the NJCAA Baseball Coaches Association. The duo provided assistance to NJCAA All-Star teams, supplying them a training site at USA Stadium in addition to other services like transportation, housing, meals, etc.
In 2004, Rogers was invited by the NJCAA Baseball Coaches Association to assist with its All-Star team that traveled to and competed in Beijing, China.
Despite the Division II World Series moving to Enid, Okla., in 2007, he has continued to lend his support and assistance to the coaches association in scheduling international competition and all-star events.
