- One area baseball program had a couple of its former players have their names
called in the MLB draft.
Jace
Beck and Bryce Milligan of Blanchard were selected on Wednesday, the final day
of the draft. Beck just finished his senior season at Blanchard, while Milligan
just finished his junior season at Oklahoma City University.
Beck
was selected in the 22nd round at pick No. 658 by the New York Mets. Beck came
to Blanchard from Tuttle High School and helped the Lions win the 2019 Class 4A
state championship as a senior.
Because
of weather, Beck was able to start two games at the state tournament and
managed to pick up a win in both of those games.
Beck
started the team's first game of the state tournament against the Berryhill
Chiefs. He struck out 11 batters and allowed just one hit in six innings of
work.
After
weather forced changes to the schedule, Beck was able to start the state title
game against the Harrah Panthers. Blanchard defeated Harrah 14-5 to win its
first state championship since 2015.
