Rattlers Return 3 From Last Year

The Rossville Rattlers are excited to welcome back three players from the 2013 NBC 19U National Championship squad.
 
Luke Bordewick (OF Pittsburg State University) - Luke is back for his third season with the Rattlers. The outfielder from Pittsburg State is in the midst of his Junior year with the Gorillas. Luke brings a very reliable bat and a big time arm in Right Field. Luke hit .333 last season with the Rattlers, driving in 22 runs and hitting two home runs in 30 games. Luke's steady and solid performance in the outfield will continue to make the Rattlers a contender in 2014.

 Ethan Beckett (2B Independence Community College) - Ethan is also back for his third summer in Rossville. Beckett is a very patient batter at the plate, his 23 walks last season lead the entire team. His ability to get on base was very valuable for the Rattlers, as he scored 20 runs last season and also lead the team in On-Base Percentage (.471). Ethan is a sophomore at Independence Community College this spring and will be a key part of the Rattlers first season in the Mid-Plains League.
 
Ryan Huth (1B Emporia State University) - The Rattlers welcome back Ryan Huth for his second season. Now a Sophomore at Emporia State, Huth will be part of the offensive production at 1st Base for Rossville. Huth led the team in triples last season (2) and was 8th on the team in On-Base Percentage (.382) Huth also showed some patience at the plate, as he was 8th in walks with 11 in 72 plate appearances.
