It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of baseball coaching legend Tony D'Anza. Tony was a long-time IHSBCA board member and a great ambassador for baseball throughout Illinois. Tony impacted the lives of countless players and coaches and will be dearly missed.

Tony was a great mentor and an invaluable promoter of Illinois baseball. He will be missed by many.

We are aware that there are many questions that have come up over the last twenty-four hours regarding this by-law and how it pertains to our baseball athletes. The IHSBCA has been in direct contact with the IHSA administration for clarification (1/2)

(2/2)...on how this impacts participation in PBR, PG and local all-star events. When we have more clarification on this matter we will communicate with the membership.

If you have any questions about any of the events you may be in, please email or text me and I will help you find clarity.
