Dubois County Bombers News Release
The Dubois County Bombers have signed Jasper's Spencer Sapp, a freshman at Indiana University for the upcoming season. He is the son of Stan and Tammy Sapp.
Sapp, a LHP/1B/OF was a prolific player for Jasper High School and Coach Terry Gobert leading the Wildcats to a 78-23 record over 3 years. He was named the Southwest Indiana Player of the Year his junior year when he led his team to the state finals compiling a 12-3 record and an E.R.A. of 1.20 while batting .392 with 32 RBI. Sapp was twice named All-Conference and earned All-Indiana honorable mention. His senior season ended on March 30th, 2011 when he underwent Tommy John surgery in Birmingham, AL by the renowned surgeon Dr. James Andrews.
While recovering from surgery last summer he worked for the Bombers as their Official Scorekeeper and got to observe the quality of play in the Prospect League. Said Sapp, "I was impressed by the overall level of play in the Prospect League and am really excited and honored to be playing for the Bombers this summer. It's quality baseball with top players from all over the country. I'm really looking forward to being a Bomber and getting back in action." Indiana Head Coach Tracy Smith said that his Assistant Coach and Recruiting Coordinator Ty Neal is "still smiling with Spencer's decision to attend IU". Neal witnessed Spencer play on several occasions and says he has "first round pick potential".
Said Bomber Owner John Bigness, "Spencer is one of several local players we'll be announcing in the coming weeks. He is certainly a special talent that we are excited to have on the Bombers and we're anxious to see him regain his full potential as he gets back into baseball action."
The Bombers will play their first of 30 home games at League Stadium on Wednesday May 30th when they host the Springfield Sliders. 2012 Season Tickets are on sale now thru January 31st.
