Coast to Coast: Muno and Haynal Join 2013 Marlins
May 17, 2013 - Coastal Plain League (Coastal Plain)
Morehead City Marlins News Release
Morehead City, N.C- The Morehead City Marlins have announced the signing of San Diego State players Ryan Muno and Brad Haynal. The 2013 season will be their first season in the Coastal Plain League.
Both Muno and Haynal will make the coast-to-coast trip from their homes in California to join the Marlins roster. Muno will play a key role in the corner infield, while Haynal will see time behind the plate.
Muno has had nothing but success as an Aztec. He was the team's starting third baseman in his freshman season and moved over to first base for his sophomore season. As of May 15 he leads the team with four home runs, 14 doubles, and 35 RBI, while being third on the team in batting average (.317).
Muno hails from La Quinta, California and is a business major. He was named to the Mountain West All-Academic Team following his freshman season. He should be thrilled to come to the Crystal Coast, as two of his favorite activities are fishing and golfing.
Haynal has started 39 games for the Aztecs this season and is hitting .250 with three homers, while driving in 24 runs. He is also second in the team with 10 doubles. Behind the plate Haynal has thrown out nine runners out of 18 attempts and has allowed just one passed ball.
Haynal is from San Diego, and stayed home to play for the Aztecs. He is a communications major at San Diego State and enjoys fishing and going to the beach.
