Congratulations to 2016 LHP Garret Rukes has committed to the University of Alabama!!
Garret is in his 2nd year with Elite Squad. This year he pitched for the 16u Prime Club and it always seemed like he pitched in every big game this summer….and he delivered every single time. Most recently Garret tossed a 1 hit complete game shutout in the playoffs in Emerson, GA at the 16u WWBA to help his team advance to the sweet 16. Two weeks later Garret pitched in the semi-final game of the PG 16u World Series going 5 innings allowing no hits also helping his team advance to the championship game.
Garret was also named Most Valuable Pitcher by Perfect Game.
Congratulations to “Big Game Rukes” and his family on his commitment to Alabama!
