#97 Bryce Cunningham Season 2022-23
RHP
Head coach Tim Corbin on Cunningham: “Bryce has earned some great experiences in his short time at Vanderbilt. He has started games in the SEC and out of conference and competed well. He also was a key piece of his Bourne championship team in the Cape Cod League this past summer. Bryce continues to grow academically and mature in areas away from the mound, which are going to benefit him moving forward. We like his presence, skill, and demeanor. Bryce will be a dependable piece of our staff.”
