Via Twitter Storm Wilson (Somerset) stated he officially commited to play Baseball for the Big Blue.....Congrats Storm!

Way to go Storm. Great athlete and a great kid as well.

What position does the lad play?

Catcher in HS, newspaper story last week quoted the coach as saying that he is batting around .600 this year. Works a good game behind the plate, he is also very fast. I don't know where UK is looking to put him. Has enough speed and arm to be an outfielder as well.

Congratulations to a great SHS athlete! It will be great to have a Briar Jumper as part of the Big Blue Nation!!

When they came to watch him last week he was playing center field. I believe they weren't interested in him as a catcher. Congrats Storm you deserve it!

Congrats to the young man and great baseball name.

Thanks. My guess is two catchers will be leaving so there could be PT available.

He's actually played mostly in centerfield this season except for when the regular catcher is pitching. He's also played some middle infield. He's a switch hitter with a lot of speed--we was a two time all-state receiver and once all-state safety in football as well.

Thanks. I look forward to watching him.
