“Heath was off to a great start of his senior season, he had a batting average of .538 and was establishing himself at the plate and in the field with his glove. . . I have no doubts he will be successful and I am proud to have coached this young man!”
McLeod has enlisted in the United States Air Force reserves and plans to continue his education while serving his country. His main goal is to be a fighter pilot.
Heath, congrats on being a star-student athlete and we wish you nothing but the best and thank you for your service.
