OHIO INSIDER: Miami Just a Stone Throw Away

Nate Stone OF / 1B / Granville, OH / 2019

GRANVILLE - When Nate Stone was in sixth grade the idea of playing baseball in college developed.

“I started going to high school games that year,” Stone related. “They had a real good team with a couple D-I commits and I liked to go watch them hit.”

Now the Granville junior will get his chance to hit in college after committing to Miami.

“The main reason I’m going to Miami is I wanted to stay in Ohio so my family could watch and enjoy the college experience,” Stone explained. “I went in the winter of my sophomore year to a camp there and followed it up with another camp this summer. Then they saw me in the summer. I really connected with coach (Danny) Hayden and (Justin) Dedman there. What they were teaching was eye opening.”
