Todd will be one of 10 committee members from Division I conferences
making recommendations to the Division I Championships/Competition
Cabinet on matters pertaining to Division I baseball. The committee
also selects the participants to the Regional, Super Regional
and College World Series.
The committee also acts as a liaison between the American
Baseball Coaches Association and ESPN representatives. In addition,
the committee studies and makes recommendations on how the
Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) is compiled. Committee members
are nominated from their respective conferences.
“It is truly an honor and a joy to be selected to the
baseball committee,’’ said Todd, who has a wealth
of experience in coordinating and directing baseball tournaments
and supervising umpires as a commissioner for the ACC before
arriving at N.C. A&T.
“It has been a long time since the MEAC has had a representative.
Therefore, I think this is an important appointment because
baseball is getting better in our conference, and I think we
can get to a point where we have more than one team in the
postseason.”
In 2005, the Aggies were the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference’s
lone representative in the postseason as they won the MEAC
Tournament and advanced to the regional hosted by Clemson.
