Four new baseball recruits have committed to play for Penn
State Mont Alto for the 2010-2011 season. Baseball's return
to campus is attracting students for the opportunity it
presents -- a Penn State education and an intercollegiate
athletic experience. Nathan Topper is a pitcher and first
baseman from Littlestown Area High School in Littlestown, Pa. He
says, "I decided to come to Mont Alto because of the location.
It's a nice short drive, and a beautiful campus. Another thing is I
saw they just picked baseball back up so I saw they could use
players, and I want to help build a good team." Brandon Dupert, a
pitcher from West Perry High School in Elliottsburg, Pa., is coming
to Mont Alto because he says, "It is a nice campus and I want to be
a part of the Penn State alumni." Andrew Baker and Cody
Casey, both from Big Spring High School in Big
Spring, Pa., are looking forward to attending Mont
Alto. Baker plays short stop and says, "I am [planning to
major] in business management. I like the campus for its
small size and the new baseball program that has started. I
am interested in helping the team and being a part of Penn
State. They have a great school program and they are very
prestigious." Casey plays second base and says, "I chose Mont
Alto because of the small campus and the quality of the
academics. I am [planning] to major in nursing. I am
very excited to play baseball [there] and I think that I can bring
a lot to the program. My main goal is to be in the playoffs
every year I spend [there]."
Mont Alto continues discussions with several more potential
recruits for the fall.
