A Closer Look at the Infielders

Infielders are some of the most important players on a baseball team They have to be able to field their positions well and also hit for a high average. The Wingate University baseball team has several great infielders who will be key contributors to the team’s success this season.

Sophomore first baseman Matt Roberts is one of the top power hitters on the team. He hit .302 with eight home runs and 32 RBIs last season. Matt will be counted on to provide some much-needed power in the middle of the lineup this season.

Junior second baseman TJ Mullins is a superb Defensive Player who is also very versatile. He can play multiple positions and provides a nice left-handed bat at the top of the lineup. TJ hit .287 last season with two home runs and 24 RBIs.

Senior shortstop Cole Hall is one of the most experienced players on the team. He’s a great leader and someone who can be counted on to make all the plays in the field. Cole hit .275 last season with one home run and 17 RBIs.

Junior third baseman Chase Mitchell is another one of the top power hitters on the team. He has a lot of pop in his bat and should hit for a high average again this season. Chase hit .304 with six home runs and 34 RBIs last season.

A Closer Look at the Outfielders

As the saying goes, “Good things come in threes.” That’s certainly the case for Wingate University’s starting outfielders for the upcoming season The Bulldogs will have a trio of seniors patrolling the grass in right, center, and left field Let’s take a closer look at each of these student-athletes.

In right field will be Jesse Hernandez. The 6-foot-1 senior from Miami, Florida is coming off a junior season in which he batted .342 with four Home Runs and 32 RBIs. Hernandez will be looking to build on those numbers in his final season as a Bulldog.

Serving as the team’s primary center fielder will be Dylan Harris. The 5-foot-11 senior from Charlotte, North Carolina is a two-time All-Conference selection who batted .368 with two home runs and 26 RBIs last season. Harris will be counted on to provide leadership for this Wingate team both on and off the field.

Left field will be patrolled by Rashad Brown. The 6-foot senior from Camden, New Jersey is coming off a junior campaign in which he was named Second Team All-Conference after batting .340 with one home run and 30 RBIs. Brown will look to finish his college career on a high note with one last strong season at Wingate.

The Bulldogs are hopeful that this group of seniors can provide both production and leadership in the outfield during what promises to be an exciting season of baseball.

A Closer Look at the Pitchers

As the 2021 baseball season rapidly approaches, Wingate University’s pitching rotation is starting to take shape. Head Coach Jeff Calvert has announced that senior right-hander Nate Stewart will be the Bulldogs’ Opening Day starter. Stewart, who was named the team’s Most Valuable Player last season, went 6-1 with a 3.86 ERA in 2020. He will be followed in the rotation by junior lefty Logan Young, who went 4-3 with a 4.50 ERA last year. The final two spots in the starting rotation are still up for grabs, but junior right-handers Sam Dyson and Cole Hinson are the leading contenders.

The Bulldog pitching staff will also feature a number of talented Relief pitchers including seniors Tanner Neely and Colton Laws, junior Chase Stephens, and sophomores Carson Edwards and Ryan Ruggles. All of these pitchers saw significant action last season and will be counted on to play key roles again in 2021.

With a deep and experienced pitching staff, Wingate University is poised to make a run at the conference championship this season.

Key Players to Watch

The Diamond Hawks are looking to continue their Winning Streak from last season as they take the field for their first game next week. As in years past, the team is stacked with talented players, but there are a few key individuals who fans should keep an eye on throughout the season.

Pitcher Jake Arnold is expected to be a key player this season. Jake had an amazing freshman year, setting the school’s single-season record for strikeouts. Jake says he’s been working hard on his control and is looking to build on his success from last year.

Another player to watch is catcher Matt Johnson. Matt was recently named captain of the team and is considered one of the best defensive catchers in the conference. He’s also no slouch at the plate, batting .300 last season.

Finally, there’s third baseman Alex Rodriguez Alex was a highly touted recruit coming out of High School and he didn’t disappoint during his freshman year, leading the team in home runs He’s been working on his speed over the offseason and should be a threat on the base paths as well as at the plate.
