Early Signing Period

[Draven 0]

The Auburn baseball program signed 11 players to National Letters of Intent during the early signing period, head coach John Pawlowski announced on Tuesday. The 11 players come from four different states, eight high schools and three junior colleges and includes two players that have played for USA Baseball and seven players ranked nationally by either Baseball America or PGCrosschecker.com

"I thought recruiting coordinator Scott Foxhall and Matt Heath did an outstanding job of landing future student-athletes that will represent Auburn baseball both on and off the field. We have addressed many of our needs in the early signing period and we will continue to put together a quality class as we progress into the spring season," Pawlowski said.
