Ausitn Arnold LHP JRHS committed to Cornell University this week.
Congratulations Austin!!!
Best of luck to Austin! A little bit of the white stuff today. It'll start melting soon with some help from global warming. At least they shovel and plow up there! I can't say the same for Richmond.
Here's a link to some live shots....

C.J. Freedman (OF/RHP) & Graham Boggio (RHP), Midlothian HS, have both committed to Lynchburg College.
Here is film of Arnold from the RBI Diamond in the Rough camp. Cornell is behind the back stop. Pretty cool.
Justin Vaclavicek from Kettle Run HS has committed to Roanoke College. He is expected to pitch for the Maroons, however he is also hoping to earn a spot in the OF. He finished up this past summer playing with the Demarini Stars and he also has a few seasons with the Richmond Braves under his belt.
Congrats to Zac Tocker OF of Eastern View who has committed to Stevenson Univ (Md)
Adam Trice, IF/OF/RHP for Lee-Davis and the Va. Cardinals, has committed to VMI.
Trey Ramsey, 2015 RHP at Paul VI, has committed (and has been admitted) to Princeton. We are proud that Trey plays with the EvoShield Canes.
Congratulations to Nick Roth (Benedictine) on his commitment to play his college baseball for Fritz Hamburg and the St Joes Hawks. Nick is a 2-way talent who distinguished himself with the Cardinals last summer as our steadiest performer on the mound. Nick culminated his season with a CG 1-hit shutout over the Dallas Stars at LakePoint and then backed it up with a CG shutout in Playoff action for the Cardinals during their march to the USBC National Championship a week later.
A testament to perseverance and determination - Nick has never given up on his goal of becoming a DI performer and it has paid off. Kudos to Ryan Wheeler and Fritz Hamburg for recognizing that pitchers who get hitters out are valuable to a college program.
He is going to tear up the A-10 and I can't wait to see it.
With private schools soon to conclude their school year and public schools to do likewise in just a few weeks, the Virginia Cardinals would like to congratulate its 12 members of the senior class (2015's) as they start to look forward to their colleges and teams of choice. We're very proud to say that we have never had a player complete our junior year program without ultimately finding a college roster spot, and this year has been no exception.
