    Congratulations Jason and to your family. But I must say, I am concerned that Wingate has been signing all of this talent

    The enthusiasm of the coaching staff is contagious, there is no doubt in my mind that this program is going places. My son, Matt Keeler, just committed to Wingate the other day. It will be an exciting team to be a part of.

    Congrats!!!

    I had heard rumors of a lot of different schools for Jason. I have had so many Dad's of kids playing in college now or have played in the past, tell me to find the school your son is going to be happy at baseball wise, academic wise, socially AND GO TO IT. Good for Jason!! My son played with him this summer. This kid can pitch!!

    Congratulations sandman on your son, Matt, signing. I wish him all the success (except against LR). I know you are very proud, as you should be.

    Congratulations

    What a great decision. My son plays with Jason and we really respect him as a player. He is an outstanding pitcher and Wingate has a good one. We look forward to following your future.

    Guys, for those of you who have seen Jason pitch, you know that Wingate is getting a gem.

    He had some D1 offers on the table, but as was eluded to in a previous post, comfort level was very important to Jason.

    I've coached Jason for 3 years now and known he and the family since he was about 3 or 4. I am so proud of him and happy to say that I've had the opportunity to watch him grow up on and off the mound.

    He will contribute in a big way from day one at Wingate.

    I saw Jason pitch for the first time, last weekend at Surry Community College. He really had some good stuff! The fastball had late movement, the curve ball was excellent as well as the change up. This kid would be able to pitch with any college. Wingate, definately has a great addition to their pitching staff!
    I was able to meet Coach Hall and Coach Gregory this past weekend. They seem to be very personal guys, excited about their program and you can tell that they take a lot of pride in their baseball field. Wow....what a field, anyone kid would love to play on that field. So, Good choice Jason and good luck!
