Pitcher Connor Redmond of Cal Poly will return to the Corvallis Knights for the 2019 season, coach Brooke Knight announced.

Redmond earned honorable-mention all-WCL honors in 2018 after going 3-1, 3.32 in 10 total games, with 35 strikeouts in 40.2 innings. He was the winning pitcher in the championship-game victory over Kelowna, allowing just one run and four hits over 6.2 innings.

He was 1-2, 3.72 in 2017, with 22 strikeouts in 29 innings over six appearances. He again excelled in the playoffs, allowing one run over five innings in a non-decision in a win over Yakima Valley, and earned honorable-mention all-WCL honors.

Redmond will be a junior at Cal Poly in 2019. He was 1-2, 6.00 in 12 games in 2018 and went 0-1, 9.64 in seven games as a freshman in 2017. He had 15 strikeouts in 24.1 innings.
