Round 27 - RHP - Michael Weldon

From: - www.utbathletics.com/.../BB012310Moya.jpg - last spring for the Pioneers. Limon led the NAIA in strikeouts per nine innings in 2009, and Stringer finished the season with a 9-1 record. "Wayland is a great team; they were one game from the College World Series last year," Aughney said. "They return some quality arms, but so do we. All we have to do is play our game and I am confident in our guys and our abilities."
