Bio

Brodie Johnston Pronunciation

 

Head coach Tim Corbin on Johnston: “We were able to see Brodie in our Winter Camp his sophomore year of high school. He has baseball maturity that you don’t see in many first-year players. He was fortunate to play in the Collegiate Appalachian League this past summer and he really excelled. This past fall he played third base and shortstop with good consistency while being able to drive the baseball to all fields. Brodie is a confident young man with a great demeanor for the game. He will impact our team in his first year.”
