Coach Ackerman is pleased to announce the signing of Warren Fitzgerald High School senior standout, Ben Smith and Goodrich High School graduate Nick McDonald. Smith, a 3 years starter for the Spartans brings not only playing ability, but strong academic history. "Ben comes from a family of hard workers, I am excited to see how far he can push himself and his teammates when he arrives here in the fall," Ackerman said, "Ben will have a valid shot at earning some playing time as a freshman."
Nick McDonald earned top notch honors during his career at Goodrich High School. McDonald was a 3 year All-District and All Conference pick as well as earning All Region his junior and senior years. Coach Ackerman said, "Nick is going to be a valuable player to our program because he is versatile. Having a guy that can make things happen from several positions as well as hit for both power and contact will add a lot to our lineup."
