TAMPA – Eleven University of South Florida baseball players have earned spots on summer team rosters in four separate leagues.
Eight guys have landed in the Virginia Valley League, and one each in the Cape Cod, Florida Collegiate Baseball and New York Collegiate Baseball League.
Freshman All-American first baseman Todd Brazeal and USF newcomer Luis Llerena will play for the Staunton Braves of the Valley League this season. Thirdbaseman Jonathan Koscso joins 2008 Freshman All-American utility player Stephen Hunt and sophomore relief pitcher Doug Wagner on the Woodstock River Bandits roster. A pitcher-catcher combination in lefty Matt Reed and Andrew Longley will play for the Covington Lumberjacks while redshirt righty Adrian Puig will do work on the hill for the Luray Wranglers.
Another 2008 Freshman All-American, Ryan Lockwood, will look to make waves for the Bourne Braves in the Cape Cod League.
Righthander Kyle Eastham returns to the Geneva Red Wings of the New York Collegiate Baseball League and lefty Trey Dahl will stay in state with the Clermont Mavericks of the Florida Collegiate Baseball League.
