On day 3 of the #MLBDraft, INF Jake Zitella (St. Charles East) and RHP Dominic Voegele (Columbia) each heard their names called.
The two put together strong springs to end their prep careers, with both earning PBR IL First Team All-State honors.
Edging their names in SAINTS BASEBALL history today are 2020 STC East graduate Cole Conn & 2023 graduate Jake Zitella. Cole drafted out of UIC in the 12 round by the Oakland Athletics & Jake in the 16th round by the New York Mets. 2 more for the press box. Congrats to both.
Community of STC is wonderful. What an event in honor of Kevin. Big huge and amazing shout out to the Kevin White Foundation commitee and all they did. Truly unbelievable!!!
Very special night for a wonderful cause!
Spent the night with fellow @stce_baseball coaches and others in the St. Charles community to support the Kevin White Foundation. Looking forward to helping this tradition grow for years to come! #BiggerThanBaseball
