Ohio State offers scholarship to area pitcher

I watched him pitch in the district final and he struck out 11 of the 16 outs he recorded! Was told he has been clocked at 91MPH and has a sharp breaking curve to go with it. He was overpowering and a name you will hear a lot more about. The fact that he hasn't signed already says there is a lot of interest from a lot of teams and why not!!


MONROE — Monroe High School senior pitcher Christian McElroy was offered by Ohio State University today, June 10, to continue his baseball career.
