I hear that Ryan Zrenda, a graduate of Lyme/Old Lyme High School (Connecticut) has signed with the Orioles organization after finishing his collegiate career at Brown.
Good stuff.

ryan is a very fine ball player
Do either of you know if Ryan was (partially) hurt in 2011? I looked at his bio, and there is only info about 2010 (great season!) and before. I saw some 2011 stats too.
My son's team played Brown (I was at game) in conference play, but I don't recall his name being mentioned all year, and he was not in the box score. He must be one heck of a player to pass up his senior year at Brown.

I believe he graduated this year. He was All Ivy Honorable Mention this year, so I assume he played at least most of the season.
From the Brown website:
Zrenda, who had been one of Brown's most consistent players entering this season, battled his way through injury this year and finished 10th in program history with 584 at-bats. In just 15 Ivy League games this year, the senior tallied six runs, 13 hits, two doubles, a home run and nine RBI.

twotex,
Thanks for the clarification. I got tripped up with the 2011 roster as some schools have not posted 2012 rosters yet. It was really bugging me that I had not heard of this young man. Ivy conference is small, so most know who is who. Zrenda has a big upside when healthy. I'll probably see him soon in minor league play as my neighbor (univ of Virginia pitcher ) was also drafted by the Orioles and playing in single-A Aberdeen.

Keep me posted! Ryan is big news for us in his small hometown.
