The 2018 schedule of fall events continues on Saturday, September 15th when 25 prospects from three states head to Widener University in Chester for the Eastern PA Fall Review. The format for the day will include a morning position player showcase that will allow prospects to run the 60-yard dash, take live batting practice and demonstrate their defensive abilities. The afternoon will be devoted to a nine inning game. 

Today we preview one of 11 uncommitted seniors on the roster, OF/RHP Ben Myers (Cumberland Valley).
