Sherman Johnson to the Angels

The Seminole's senior third baseman had an awesome run through the College World Series.  Johnson was 7 for 17, .412 average, with five runs, three RBIs, two doubles, and one home-run all in the leadoff position.  The tell all stat was base on balls where he drew four of them in the four games giving him an on base percentage of .524 for the tournament.  In his four years at Florida State, three in which he was a starter, Johnson had 180 walks in 228 games.  The Los Angeles Angels drafted him in the 14th round of this years draft and now he has signed and will head to play for their class A minor league club.

Jayce Boyd Joining The New York Mets

On Monday, the Seminole First Baseman decided to forgo his senior season and turn Pro.  He was drafted by the New York Mets in the sixth round of this year's MLB Draft and now will be headed to play with their short-season class A affiliate, the Brooklyn Cyclones, in the New York-Penn league.
During his junior year at Florida State, Boyd lead the team in RBI's, hits, and average .395 which was the best in the ACC.   He and his fellow Seminoles made it to the final four of the College World Series before falling to the National Champion Arizona Wildcats for the second time.  In the four games at the CWS, he was 3 for 16 with two runs and an RBI.
