Medford Rogues News Release
MEDFORD, OR - The Medford Rogues today announced the commitment of five players to the 2014 roster, the second group of players to be announced for the summer season. Added to the roster are: RHP Dylan Ramage (Morehead State), 1B/3B Joe Love (Northern Colorado), and three Pepperdine Waves: RHP Ian Doughty, CF Jeremy Goldenetz and RHP Mat Snider. Ramage is the fourth Morehead State Eagle to sign with Medford.
"This group continues our plan to bring in quality Division I players from throughout the country and expand our recruitment footprint," Rogues General Manager Chuck Heeman said. "We've also targeted schools that finish their school years and tournaments earlier in the spring. We're finding that Medford's reputation as a quality place to send players is spreading among college coaches and this group represents that."
