Freshman right-handed pitcher Logan Buczkowski follows a long family history of athletes at Central Michigan University.
Back in 1974, the Central Michigan football team won the Division II national championship game. Buczkowski’s grandfather, Don Peddie, was an assistant coach.
While Peddie taught physical education and assisted on the football team at CMU, Buczkowski’s grandmother, Barbara Peddie, taught dance at CMU.
Buczkowski’s uncle and aunt, Jake and Heather Peddie, were also CMU athletes.
“My uncle played baseball here and I just want to follow in his footsteps,” Logan said. “He’s a pitcher too, so it fits really well.
