One of South Carolina baseball's top relievers last season not signing with MLB team

South Carolina baseball will get one of its top relievers from the 2018 campaign back for another year, as junior pitcher Graham Lawson announced Thursday that he will not sign with the MLB team who drafted him, the Washington Nationals, "due to some other circumstances," he wrote on Twitter.

It was an absolute blessing to have been drafted by the @Nationals and a dream come true. Due to some other circumstances I will not be signing and returning to @GamecockBasebll. Can’t wait to get back on this journey after such a special year!
