Cleveland Brown defensive lineman and Elizabethtown native, Desmond Bryant will hold his annual football camp on July 15. Mark your calendar and be sure to register.
One area native will most likely become a millionaire tonight. Mackenzie Gore, Whiteville Wolfpack baseball, Mr. Everything, is expected to be among the first half-dozen or so picks in the annual Major League Baseball Draft. The draft begins at 7 this evening and continues through Tuesday.
According to ESPN’s Keith Law, the draft rotation and $ amount for the top draftees:
Team Pick Value
1. Minnesota $7,770,700
2. Cincinnati 7,193,200
3. San Diego 6,668,100
4. Tampa Bay 6,153,600
5. Atlanta Braves 5,707,300
6. Oakland A’s 5,303,000
Gore completed his high school career with a 41-2 record, 0.35 ERA in 4 seasons, pitched 315 innings, gave up 124 hits, 48 base on balls and recorded 556 strikeouts.
His team won the state championship this year and he is the Gatorade National Player of the Year, and I am told he is the total package, first class young man with a very supportive family.
