Motivated, determined, seasoned, mature, confident and specialized are words that typically surround senior collegiate athletes. Usually one of many seniors on a team is considered leader or captain of the team.
A duo of seniors, Caleb McCann and Grayson Atwood, are the only two seniors on the baseball team this year and both have had to take responsibility in training the young players on the team and providing an example of how a veteran collegiate player should handle themselves.
App State head coach Billy Jones joined the program four years ago and has seen both McCann and Atwood grow and mature along the way to be ready to be in a leadership position this season.
