Former Trojan, Landon Harper, makes things official by signing with the Atlanta Braves

MERIDIAN, Miss. (WTOK) - Once a Trojan always a Trojan but now Landon Harper is a Brave.

The former Northeast Lauderdale pitcher signed his rookie contact through the Braves organization.

Harper was drafted in the 14th round of the 2022 MLB draft by the Braves after spending his last season at Southern Miss as a reliver.

Harper did get to make an appearance in the NCAA Super Regionals when USM got to host their first Super Regionals in program history. He also held one of the lowest ERA’s on the team this year.

When Harper’s name did get called in the draft he was not expecting it to say the least.
