Grand Canyon took another step towards a Top 25 ranking after an impressive weekend that showed clutch play.
Grand Canyon's baseball team went 4-0 over the weekend, beating Ohio State twice and Gonzaga twice, in three days, taking a step towards a Top 25 ranking in the nation.
Gregory, a grad-student transfer from Arkansas, drilled a two-run, walk-off home run to beat Ohio State in the night game. In the 17-16 win over Gonzaga, he homered and was 3 for 5 with with three RBIs. Gregory was a team captain on last year's Arkansas team that reached the College World Series and had a two-hit game against Stanford to open the CWS in Omaha. He's another veteran presence who is used to big moments.
"We were impressed with his season at Barton," Wallis said."It's an offensive conference. The numbers he put up were amazing. He came into the fall. We knew he would be one of our weekend starters pretty quickly. Each week, it looks like he's getting more confident. He has performed amazingly."Starting pitcher Daniel Avitia, the WAC's Preseason Pitcher of the Year, is coming back from a preseason ankle injury, gradually building himself up after two outings.
"We feel good about a lot of the guys," Wallis said."We feel good about Tyson Heaton back there. We've had to use him in some tie games late, because we felt like he gave us a chance to win it. I'm looking at him and a couple other guys as more of a stopper who will end up being a closer. I think we're going to use whoever our best option is when we feel like it's going to help us win the game.
