Gage Schenk RHP / C / Wapakoneta, OH / 2018Rankings StateRank: 89 / POS: 31
The top-ranked unsigned 2018 pitcher in Ohio made a big enough impression at the state semifinals to get the interest he felt was long deserved and it turned into a Division I baseball scholarship. “Up until the state semifinals, I had only talked to a bunch of Division II, Division III and NAIA schools,” noted the 6-1 175-pound right-hander. “They were great schools but they didn’t make it cheap enough for me and I wasn’t really interested in that.” But in the state semis, Schenk did not allow an earned run in a five-hit 6-1 win for Wapakoneta, fanning 10 and walking just one while topping out at 90 on the radar gun. “It hit me hard after the semis that it could be the last time competitively I step on the mound,” Schenk related. “I hadn’t thought much about that all season, I was just focused on the financial aspect of college, but after the game it hit me hard.” |
WAPAKONETA - A little patience went a long way for Gage Schenk … all the way to a scholarship with Bowling Green.
