By Chad Gramling | January 27, 2009
Taylor head baseball coach Kyle Gould announces the signing of Chuck Weaver to the Trojan club for the 2009-10 school year.
Weaver will graduate from Homestead High School in Fort Wayne this spring. The 6′5″ right-handed pitcher also plays third base and helped his team to a 4A State Runner-Up finish in 2008 for coach Steve Sotir.
Ranked as the #71 prospect in the State of Indiana by Prep Baseball Report, Weaver hit .349 as a junior and played in the summer for the Fort Wayne Cubs.
Coach Gould is excited about Weaver joining the Trojan roster,
“Chuck is a very versatile player with a lot of potential. He posses great size, a power arm, good defensive instincts and the ability to hit the ball with some power. He has had great success playing on one of the top high school teams in the state of Indiana as well as in the summers with the Fort Wayne Cubs. He has the ability to be an impact player both on the mound and at third base for us during his time at Taylor.”
