• #27 M. J. McWhorter (East Union HS – Chris Basil)

• Batted .357 as a freshman in 2007, with 15 hits, three doubles, and seven RBI. M.J. stole two bases and only struck out six times in 42 plate appearances

Coach Kent Farris- “M. J. has made tremendous strides since last year. He had a great fall and has shown the ability to take his game to the next level. We need for him to continue with this effort and stay away from the injuries that plagued him last year.”
