Havent posted in a while but will update that Wes Borden has transferred from App State and is now at Penn State. He will play middle infield for them (probably the 6 spot) The whole thing has been a dream so far. Can read a press release about it all at www.gopsusports.com. He had surgery this summer on his elbow but is doing well now. Just hard for old southern dad to buy Nittany Lion gear

 

I can try to provide updates on UNC-A players from the area when things start heating up. Right now not much to tell as they just finished conditioning and are in group workouts. My son did say that a couple of the Charlotte area boys did look pretty good.

 

that's interesting. why Penn State? cold weather college baseball.

 

Andy Oliver did well at Pfieffer this past spring. He finished the season with a 5 & 3 record. He did even better with the summer copperhead wood bat team. Braves, How is TJ doing.

 

For those that don't know, my son had TJ surgery last February. He is sporting a new bionic arm and is ready to try it out. He is chomping at the bit for the season to get started.

The other surprising change in TJ is his appearance. Many remember him as a 6'5" 170 lbs of all arms and legs. If you haven't seen him recently, you wouldn't recognize him. After grueling workouts and rehabbing, he is at 225-230 now with big, thick legs and something else he never had....a chest!

If he stays healthy, it should be an interesting year for him.

 

good luck to tj. he deserves it now dad is another story ha ha
