Dynamic Belmont Duo Headed To Martinsville
The Martinsville Mustangs have announced the addition of two more players to the 2019 roster.
Freshman infielder Jack Capobianco and sophomore lefty Stone Selby of Belmont University are the newest members of the 2019 Mustangs.
Capobianco, a London, Kentucky native, has played in 29 games during his freshman campaign, recording a double and four RBI. The shortstop has also scored seven runs and stolen a base.
Selby, a left-hander out of Hohenwald, Tennessee is 1-0 in 17 appearances so far this season. The southpaw has struck out 24 batters in 29 innings pitched and opponents are hitting just .261 against him. Selby recorded a big strikeout in the Bruins’ 10-1 victory over Lipscomb on Tuesday night.
Belmont is currently 20-20 on the year but holds an impressive 14-7 mark in the Ohio Valley Conference. The Bruins will open a three-game set at Tennessee Tech this weekend.
