The Bobcats are coming off of a 2016 season in which they 31-28 overall and 16-14 in Sun Belt Conference play, which was good for fifth place in the conference.
Texas State baseball head coach Ty Harrington on the early recruiting class: “We’re certainly really proud of how successful this group has been in high school. We hope that their successes will translate to the collegiate level and they can help us chase championships. These individuals represent the type of character players that we want involved in our program. Each are successful on the field, but they are also incredibly successful as people.”
