D1 Knoxville Trains MLB Player

D1 Knoxville is currently training Chad Bell, a Knoxville native and graduate of South Doyle High School, who in August signed a professional baseball contract with the MLB’s Texas Rangers. Chad was a 14th round selection of the club in June’s first-year Major League Draft. While in high school, Chad was named District Pitcher of the Year, Knoxville Prep Xtra Player of the Year, All-district and All-region as a Junior & Senior, and named All-State his Senior Year. We wish Chad all the best as he prepares his body for pitching in the Texas Rangers organization.
