Knights Sign Three Players

November 13, 2012 - West Coast League (WCL)
Corvallis Knights News Release


The Corvallis Knights of the West Coast League have signed returnee Chris Rabago of UC Irvine and two other players for the 2013 season, general manager Bre Kerkvliet announced Tuesday.

A sophomore catcher/infielder from Riverside, Calif., Rabago will be joined by left-handed pitcher Elliot Surrey of UC Irvine and freshman right-handed pitcher Dylan Hecht of UC Santa Barbara. Surrey is from La Crescenta, Calif.; Hecht is from Pleasanton, Calif.

Rabago (5-11, 180) hit .195 with no homers and 14 RBIs in 43 games and won the Knights' Joe Segel Hustle Award in 2012. He hit .286 in 2012 as a freshman at UC Irvine, with a homer and 12 RBIs in 35 games.

Surrey (6-0, 175) was a three-time CIF and three-time Pacific League first-team all-star at Crescenta Valley High. He was the Pacific League MVP in 2012 after hitting .350, with eight doubles, two triples, a homer and 14 RBIs as a batter and going 6-1 with a 1.11 ERA, three complete games and 73 strikeouts in 50.1 innings as a pitcher.

"Elliot brings a winner's track record from a strong high school program" to UCI, Anteaters' pitching coach Jason Dietrich said. "He is confident, poised, and trusts his mix of fastball, curveball, and change. (His) complete command of all three pitches will enable him to pitch quickly for us in a variety of roles."

Hecht (6-0, 195) played at Foothill High School in 2012 and was 5-3 with a 1.66 ERA in 13 appearances in 2012, with 85 strikeouts in 59 innings.
