Corvallis Knights News Release


The Corvallis Knights of the West Coast League have signed Boise State pitchers Jay Baggs and Stuart Flesland for the 2020 season, coach Brooke Knight announced Thursday.

Flesland is a 6-foot-4, 177-pound freshman lefty from Colbert, Wash., who graduated from Mt. Spokane High School in Mead. Three-year letterwinner, he was a Greater Spokane League first-team all-star and second-team all-state choice as a senior, when he posted a 0.19 ERA.

He was also first-team all-GSL as a junior, with a 0.78 ERA. As a sophomore, he was second-team all-GSL and had six wins and two saves.

Flesland pitched briefly for the WCL's Yakima Valley Pippins in 2019 and was 0-2 in two starts, with seven strikeouts in seven innings. He pitched six scoreless, one-hit innings against Northwest Nazarene in a fall exhibition game, with eight strikeouts.

Baggs is a 6-5, 229-pound right-hander from San Clemente HS in San Clemente, Calif. A three-sport athlete who also lettered in football and basketball, he was a South Coast League all-star in baseball and an all-league tight end in football.

Boise State is restarting its baseball program this spring after a lengthy hiatus, under veteran coach Gary Van Tol. The Broncos will play in the Mountain West Conference.

The Knights open the 2020 season on June 2 with the team's ninth annual Science, Engineering & Art Day game at Goss Stadium. Their WCL opener is June 5 at Yakima Valley; their WCL home opener is June 12 against Bend.
