After brief WVU debut, Scott H.S. grad Carter Lyles heads to Northwoods League

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Danville, W.Va. native and Scott H.S. graduate Carter Lyles fulfilled a lifelong goal during his senior season with the Skyhawks by signing with the WVU baseball program.

“It was my dream school,” Lyles said. “I always wanted to go there. My mom actually showed me a picture of when I was a year old and I had a Mountaineer mascot hat on and the little jersey on. I was a big fan my whole life.”

Lyles was sold on becoming a Mountaineer when he first met eighth-year head coach Randy Mazey.
