Keith Landers, a recent graduate of St. Peter - Marian High School, was selected in the Major League Baseball amateur draft by the Baltimore Orioles. Landers, a 6-foor 7-inch and 205 pound starting pitcher, now has to make a decision between signing with the Orioles or heading to the University of Louisville, where he has a four-year scholarship waiting for him to pitch for the Cardinals.

 

Billy Cather, a senior-to-be at the University of Maine - Orono and a 2005 Worcester Academy graduate, was selected in the Major League Baseball amateur draft by the Washington Nationals.
