A Division of
Winning Baseball
The “Dirt Bro” Elite Infield Academy/Camp provides a comprehensive experience for both baseball and softball players of all levels.
Instruction is conducted by veteran infield coach Trent Mongero and his Division 1-starting shortstop son, Taber Mongero.
Campers will learn key physical and mental tools needed to transform their infield play, including “The Big 6 Infield Drills.” They will also learn and apply a critical “catch play routine,” valuable tips to increase their range, pre-game/practice routines, how to identify strengths and weaknesses, understand what physical tools are required to play at the college/pro level in the infield, and be able to identify, and measure, mental make-up qualities of a champion. In addition, campers will be taught ways to successfully manage pressure/anxiety in big moments, improve their infield IQ and situational awareness, and be introduced to ways to raise personal character and integrity. Last, but not least, players will learn how to raise their confidence as a player, which is needed for them to succeed on their journey to the highest levels.
“I have been around a lot of camps and instructors through my years in this game. People who didn’t attend this Mongero Elite camp missed out big time. I mean HUGE MISS.”

Coach Taber Mongero:
Taber Mongero, who is ranked the 36th best D1 – Shortstop in America, graduated high school at 138 pounds. Yes, 5’8” – 138 pounds, to be exact. He is a hard nosed “dirt dawg” or as we like to call it… a hard nosed Dirt Bro. Taber prides himself on playing the game the right way and being a great teammate. He was always one of the smallest players on his teams growing up, so he had to learn to play big and develop superior baseball IQ and situational awareness in order to succeed and advance to higher levels. Because of his size and many people doubting him, he plays the game with a big “chip” on his shoulder. Most believed he was too small physically to ever play college baseball, not to mention becoming a D-1 Shortstop. Taber is very strong in his Christian faith and plays the game for an AO1 (audience of 1…being God). He believes in working hard, working smart, and creating processes on defense and offense that transfer into improved game performance. Taber was a First-team All-CAA selection in 2022 and an ABCA Second-Team All-Atlantic D1 Region selection. He is the only UNCW Seahawk to play and start in every game in 2021 and 2022. Ranked among UNCW’s single-season leaders at shortstop in fielding percentage at .961, Taber tied the program record with 10 defensive assists in a win over the College of Charleston. He finished 2022 with a .301 batting average and six home runs. Added 12 doubles and a pair of triples. Including 17 multi-hit games and seven three-hit outings.
