Hesston College baseball coach
Art Mullet has announced that Joel Herschberger has signed a letter
of intent to play baseball at Hesston College beginning the fall of
2005.
Herschberger, a recent graduate
of Bethany Christian High School (Goshen), participated in soccer,
basketball, and baseball there. However, he will focus solely on baseball
at Hesston. His primary position has been shortstop, but he also has
pitching experience.
"I'm pleased to have Joel
coming to Hesston," Mullet said. "He has shown good potential
in baseball, and his high energy and leadership skills will be valuable
to our program."
Herschberger is the son of Mike
Groff and Rose Herschberger Groff, Shipshewana.
The Hesston College men's baseball team competes in Division II of
the National Junior College Athletic Association.
Located in south central Kansas,
Hesston College is the two-year liberal arts college owned by Mennonite
Church USA.
