• Hauff to Play Division I Baseball with Dons

  

  SGS 2009 graduate Trenton Hauff has signed to play baseball with the Division I University of San Francisco. "It has been my goal to be a college athlete since I started playing baseball," the five-year starter for the Dragons said in an article in the Spokesman-Review. Hauff was a preseason Under Armour All-American, and this spring he hit 10 home runs, batted nearly .600 with a 1.300 slugging percentage, and had a record of 6-1 with a 2.300 ERA for Saint George's. Athletic Director Ryan Peplinski says he is the only baseball player at the school to have participated in the state tournament all four years of high school.

"I reached my goal with hard work and determination."
