SAN DIEGO - San Diego State head baseball coach Tony Gwynn today announced the signing of 14 athletes to national letters of intent for the 2007 season. The class is the largest in the history of the Aztec baseball program.
Among the signees are eight high school seniors, including three from the San Diego area, and a half dozen junior college players. A total of seven of the new athletes are pitchers.
Of the 36 players on SDSU's 2006 roster, 13 are seniors who will depart at season's end along with a few juniors expected to be drafted and signed by pro clubs. The Aztecs will likely have to replace six starters in the field along with a significant number of pitchers at the end of the 2006 campaign.
Below is a list of San Diego State's 2007 class thus far with the possibility of another signing or two in the next week. More info on the individual players will follow.
