Bridge
City quarterback Matt Menard hits the practice field Monday for his
senior season so he wrapped up his college future Friday by announcing
he was going to play baseball at Baylor University. With National
Signing Day not until November Menard is taking the decision off his
shoulders now to allow him to concentrate on what should be an exciting
season of Cardinal football. "I fell in love with the campus when I got
there," he said. "The facilities are great, I'll be living just four
blocks from the field, and I'm just excited about competing in the Big
12." The University of Houston was the other Texas university recruiting
Menard but he liked the action of playing against teams like Texas and
Texas A&M. So what if the two-sport star has another great year on the
football field and someone offers him a scholarship? "I love football,
but as far as longevity and playing time, I think baseball is my sport,"
Menard said.
Texas
A&M-Kingsville
head
baseball
coach Jason
Gonzales
added a big
piece to the
puzzle for
the 2012
season when
former
McNeese
State
right-handed
pitcher
Jaden Dillon
agreed to
play for the
Javelinas
for his
senior
season. "We
are
extremely
excited
about Jaden
Dillon
becoming a
Javelina,”
said
Gonzales.
“This is as
talented a
pitcher as
we have
signed here
in a very
long time.
This is a
young man
who has been
extremely
successful
at the
Division I
level and
brings a
wealth of
talent and
experience.
We could not
be more
pleased that
he has
become part
of Javelina
Nation."
Dillon is
currently
pitching in
the Texas
Collegiate
League this
summer for
the East
Texas Pump
Jacks. He
leads the
league with
seven wins.
He is 7-1
with a 2.52
ERA on the
season. He
leads the
league with
two complete
games and is
fifth in the
league with
53.2 innings
pitched. He
pitched in
the TCL
All-Star
game.
