Two UConn Baseball Players Chosen to Play Against Team USA

On Wednesday, the Futures Collegiate Baseball League announced the 25-man all-prospect team which they will be sending to Worcester, Massachusetts to play the USA Collegiate National Team on July 11. There are two UConn players on the roster.

Incoming freshman right-handed pitcher Joe Simeone and rising senior outfielder Troy Stefanski will both be suiting up against teammate Tim Cate, a left-handed pitcher and rising junior.

Simeone joined the Wachusett Dirt Dawgs as a reliever after his high school season at Groton-Dunstable Regional High School on June 9 and has been nothing short of phenomenal.

He has pitched in 11 1/3 innings over 10 appearances and has been counted upon time and time again in high-leverage situations.
