Continuing a renewed focus on “keeping local athletes local”, the North Central Missouri College Pirates have signed Chillicothe High School senior Tristen Sewell to the Pirate baseball program. Â NCMC Coach Donnie Hillerman, with the signing, said “Tristen shows nice, raw tools. Â We have had his fastball locked as high as 84 mph and we think there is room to grow”.
NCMC Assistant Coach Ryan Suttenfield added, “What I really like about Tristen is his work ethic. Â He has been to multiple workouts for us and he is very eager to learn. Â That is the type of drive and determination we need from all of our players”.
As a junior in the Spring 2016 season, Sewell was 1-2 for the Hornets with a 4.60 ERA, while batting a robust .347.
