PVAMU Panthers Baseball Brings In New Recruiting Class

PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas  -- Prairie View A&M signed five junior college players and one high school standout in its 2013 recruiting class. Days after Prairie View A&M coach Waskyla Cullivan used a shovel at the team's groundbreaking ceremony for its new baseball facility, he ushered in a class full of players that could potentially shape the program for the better.

"This recruiting class addressed the needs for the 2015 season," Cullivan said. "Currently those are pitching depth and RBI guys who were capable of hitting in the middle of the lineup. Assistant Coach Byron Carter did a great job recruiting this talented group; we feel this class will help make an immediate impact as we look to build on our previous success."

 

The Panthers have been to the Southwestern Athletic Conference Championship game for two-consecutive seasons and brought home the title in 2012. Cullivan would like to capture the 2014 SWAC Championship after falling just short in the 2013 title game.
