On Tuesday, Texas Longhorns head coach David Pierce sent out his trademark #40AcresFamily tweet to announce the commitment of Midland College right-handed pitcher Dawson Merryman:
Midland College RHP Dawson Merryman is latest #HookEm commit. A low slot RHP that attacks from a tough angle, he's currently pitching out of bullpen (0.00 ERA) for @ChathamAnglers. He was a starter for MC last season, but probably profiles best as backend reliever. Impact arm.

Merryman was a freshman last season for the Chaps and earned recognition as the conference’s Most Valuable pitcher.
