Carson Beavers, Blake Rogers, Hunter Gray, Matthew Shirah, and Gabe Buchanan further their baseball careers on 12/13/19

Congratulations to Blake Rogers for signing a letter of intent to play college baseball at Reinhardt University next year. Rogers is a senior at Fannin County High School who has been playing the sport for most of his life.

It was a unique and exciting day as not only Blake was signing, but also four of his other teammates. Family and friends from all over came to celebrate the Rebel’s big day. Head coach of the Fannin Rebel Baseball team started off the signing ceremony thanking the parents and teachers of the players for shaping them into the fine young men that they have become. He followed his statement  with, “This is not something that happens overnight. Great baseball players are shaped over the years from rec ball games, travel ball tournaments, and school games that you parents gave up your time to be at. These five young men had a goal and they have worked so hard to achieve this next chapter of their life. These men are going to do great things. They are going to come back and be a great part of a community wherever they decide to land and that speaks to their character. They have been all in since day one and I’m so grateful to have shared part of this journey with them.”
