The Fall College Prospect Program will get under way on September 7 giving college prospects an opportunity to showcase their abilities in game action on three college campuses during the course of the month. The fall program is in its second year of existence following on the heels of a very successful 2013 tour that saw 50 players announce college commitments.

2015  LHP/OF Braden Griffin (Man HS)


Braden GriffinGriffin put on a show in the West Virginia state tournament last June, especially in the semifinals. The 6-foot, 180-pound junior LHP/OF went 3-for-3 at the plate and pitched 6.1 innings of three hit baseball for the win. The lefty showcased a fastball that sat 80-82 topping at 83 out of a 3/4 arm slot with some natural cut. The uncommitted senior, ranked No. 12 in the WV Class of 2015, also flashed a 1/7 breaking curveball that sat 67-70 with tight rotation and sharp, late break. Griffin cruised through the first six innings. After walking two in the 7th inning he gave way to LHP Ryan Adkins who came on to throw a total of two pitches while inducing a 5-4-3 double play to end the game.

Griffin will put his two way abilities on display in Week Two of the Fall College Prospect Program participating in both games and the showcase at La Roche College.
