PBR Michigan's Top Stories for the Year 2015: Neibauer No Longer A Secret

Entering the 2015 season the talk around Country Day was all around the buzz Steve Mann created in his freshman year.

Several college coaches flocked to Beverly Hills, Michigan to see Mann.

To their surprise they witnessed a 6-foot-2, 185-pound multi-positional athlete. He popped a 1.90 to second base, and played a solid defensive shortstop.

Nick earned all district honors as a shortstop where he played the majority of the time in high school.

Neibauer attended the 2015 Top Prospects Games at Eastern Michigan University, where he popped a 1.87 to second base, while recording a 85 mph exit velocity.

After the Michigan TPG (attended by 50+ college coaches) Neibauer was no longer one of the state's top secrets, but a highly sought after multi-positional prospect.

In November Nick committed to Bowling Green State University.
