vmi_logoVMI baseball will send 22 of its current players, including Second Team All-Big South catcher Matt Winn, to various summer leagues on the East Coast.

Winn is one of four VMI players playing in the Coastal Plain League, as he will suit up for the Petersburg Generals. He will be joined on that squad by relief pitcher Miles McQuaig and outfielder Gary LeClair, while Lucas Cash will pitch for the Forest City Owls, also in the Coastal Plain League.

Three other teams will also have three Keydets, as the Cal Ripken League’s Vienna Riverdogs will include Brandon Angus, Red Dowdell and Jonathan Kelley, while the Tri-City League’s Carson City Cardinals will have Brandon Diamond, Eric Mayers and Berkley Hawkins on their roster.

In addition, the Valley League’s New Market Rebels will feature Reed Garrett, Ray Lopez and Andrew Woods. Outfielder Jordan Tarsovich will also play in the Valley League, as he will suit up for the Strasburg Express, while Campbell Henkel will pitch for the Woodstock River Bandits. Fans in the Lexington area can see these Keydets when New Market comes to town to play the Rockbridge Rapids on May 31, Strasburg visits Lexington on June 7 or when Woodstock is in on June 25.

Continuing the list of Keydets playing this summer, Will Connerley (Outer Banks Daredevils) and Rian Ellis (Lynnhaven Stars) are in the Tidewater Summer League, while Thomas Stallings and Sheldon Shifflett will suit up for Elkton of the Rockingham County Baseball League. Finally, Drew Bryan will play for the Southhampton Breakers of the Hamptons Collegiate League and both Jason Stafford (Post 217 – Big Island) and Micah Gorman (Post 125 – Lakeside) will play American Legion summer ball.
