NC State picked up a commitment from Alabama transfer pitcher Danny Heintz on Wednesday.
Heintz spent his first four seasons at Penn before transferring to Alabama for the 2025 season. He appeared in one game for the Crimson Tide before redshirting the year.
During his time at Penn, Heintz made 29 appearances as a reliever, posting a 7.45 ERA.
Heintz is coming home—he grew up in Morrisville, North Carolina, and played high school baseball at Green Hope High School in Cary.
Athleticism runs in the family. Danny’s brother, PJ Heintz, played college baseball at UNC Asheville.
