At the high school level and above, the catcher position in baseball is the most highly rotated due to the strain it puts on your body.
UConn catcher Matt Donlan hasn’t had that luxury this year, but he’s relishing every minute of it. Donlan visited UConn as a high school recruit but there wasn’t a roster spot for him at the time. After taking the long way to Storrs, the transfer has emerged as a key player for the Huskies this year.
Donlan’s backup, freshman Matt Garbowski, hasn’t caught a game in over a month due to back issues.
