BSU, Beals sign eighth recruit
Ball State baseball coach Greg Beals announced Friday shortstop Andrew DeYoung has become the eighth recruit to offer a commitment to his program for the 2009 season.
DeYoung is a 6-foot-3 shortstop from Hanover Central High School in Cedar Lake. He's the second shortstop signed for the upcoming season, along with Tim Issler, who gave his commitment to Beals earlier this summer.
As a senior, DeYoung recorded a .456 batting average with 30 runs scored, 20 RBI and 35 stolen bases. His performance was good enough to earn First Team All-Area honors and was named his team's Most Valuable Player. DeYoung was also a First Team All-Porter Conference selection for three years.
