UNC Baseball Commit🐻

[Yale Johnson @yaleyjohnson]

Blessed to announce my commitment to play Division 1 Baseball at the University of Northern Colorado. I would like to thank my coaches, my teammates, and my family who have all helped me get to this point. I would also like to thank the UNC coaching staff for believing in me.

27’ OF Taylor Dodd (Casteel)

The always scrappy #uncommitted switch hitter went 2-4 with a walk. Mature approach at the plate with quality ABs has proved to be a tough out. While tallying a stolen base. Dodd was a big factor in the win

Powerful: Moe Odum on how much Bobby Hurley means to him.

"He is the greatest coach that's ever coached me. I'm going to war with him anytime. If I had more eligibility, I wouldn't go no where. Without Hurley, there's no us."

[Perfect Game Scout @PG_Scouting]

Tyler Houston ('26 CO) and Yale Johnson ('26 AZ) combined for an inning-ending strike-em-out, throw-em-out. Houston (Cal State Northridge commit) produced a K with an 89 MPH heater, and Johnson (Northern Colorado commit) back-picked a runner off third to escape a jam.

[Perfect Game Scout @PG_Scouting]

‘26 Aaron Jaquez (CO) was efficient over two frames with 5 K’s & 66% strikes. Up to 90-mph & works a CH down in zone @ 81, big depth to mid 70’s SL. Physical & strong build. #WWBAWorlds @PG_FourCorners #UNC commit

[Sophia Minnaert @SophiaMinnaert]

Pat Murphy’s son, Austin, was asked why he believes in the Brewers:

“Well, the guys respond back really good. Started the season 0-4. Those games were not good. But then they responded with the best record in baseball. So I believe they can do it.”

[Perfect Game Scout @PG_Scouting]
