COACH CORBIN QUOTE:Tyler is quietly growing in all phases of the game. He's consistent, sure handed and a very accurate thrower. He has the ability to play both infield spots up the middle. He improved a great deal over the fall with his bat. He could help us in the present but we certainly like his future in our program.
