DANVILLE, IL - Following last year's record 12 Dans selected in the Major League Baseball Draft, there were six Danville Dans drafted in this year's draft.

Leading off the Dans in the draft was Bradley Roney, a junior RHP from Southern Mississippi. He was selected in the 8th round by the Atlanta Braves. He played in Danville in 2012.

Another 2012 Dan drafted was Andrew Daniel, from the University of San Diego. The junior third baseman was picked in the 11th round by Los Angeles Angels.

Two outfielders on the 2011 Dans roster were selected. Bryan Langlois, a junior from Pepperdine, was chosen by the Washington Natioanls in the 20th Round. And junior Charlie White from Maryland was picked by the Chicago Cubs in the 21st Round.

Miles Nordgren - a member of the 2013 Dans team that set a Prospect League record for 41 wins in a season - was drafted by the Minnesota Twins in the 23rd Round. Norgren is a RHP from Birmingham Southern.

Another 2013 Dan, Spencer Hermann, was drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the 36th Round. The LHP junior is from Fisher College.

"We're very excited to see these former Dans picked in the 2014 MLB draft," said Dans managing partner Jeanie Cooke. "This draft is a continuation of the proud heritage of player development with the Dans."

Once signed, these players join around 200 minor leaguers and 23 major leaguers, past and present, who are Dans alumni.

The Danville Dans are in their 27th season of wooden bat summer college baseball, playing in the Prospect League (formerly the Central Illinois Collegiate League - CICL).
