The Claremont-Mudd-Scripps and Pomona-Pitzer athletic departments had reason to celebrate as Stags pitcher Alex Sunderland (pictured top) and Sagehens hurler David Colvin (pictured bottom) were both drafted by Major League Baseball's Seattle Mariners during the 2011 MLB First Year Player draft earlier this month.Colvin was selected in the 27th round and became the 5th Pomona-Pitzer player to be drafted by an MLB team since 2003. His record as a Sagehen was 35-7 and he was named First Team All-SCIAC, Pomona-Pitzer's Most Valuable Athlete and Second Team All-West Region during his collegiate stint. He will report to the Pulaski Martines of the Appalachian League.
Sunderland was the 1143rd player selected in the draft's 38th round. His career record with the stags with 20-7 with a 3.94 ERA in 233 innings. Sunderland's 1.000 fielding percentage during the 2011 season led to his selection to the ABCA/Rawlings West Region Gold Glove Team while his 9-1 record in 2010 led to First Team All-SCIAC and Third Team ABCA/Rawlings All-West honors.
Congratulations to both players as their hard work has paid off.
I wish I would have known about this so much before since I have a mobile sportsbook app that I would have used to bet some money on the transfer rumors of Alex Sunderland.
