Brandon Fuller, a senior at Hendersonville High School, has committed to continue his education and collegiate baseball career at Maryville College.
The 5-foot-10, 194-pound pitcher comes to Maryville after earning a District 9-AAA Championship and a Regional Championship in 2015. This Hendersonville, Tenn. native earned a State Tournament appearance, before holding a 1.38 ERA during his senior campaign. Fuller earned All-District honors during his junior season.
"Brandon is another left handed arm that we are thrilled to have on board," Maryville College Head Coach Cody Church said. "He plays in a highly competitive league and has had a ton of success in his career. He brings a dynamic look to our staff. With his ability to compete and mix pitches, he will develop into a great pitcher."
Fuller is the son of Tracy and Trey Fuller.
He joins a Maryville College program that has been led by Church for the past two seasons. He will be part of a squad that finished with a school record 29 wins and a berth to the USA South Conference Tournament Championship game during the 2016 season.
"This is another talented group of freshmen we have joining our program," Church said. "Coach Clint Helton did a phenomenal job this year bringing this group onto campus. We are really excited to see these guys develop in their time here at Maryville College."
In only a pair of seasons, Church has elevated the Scots' program in recruiting, development and facilities, making Maryville an enticing spot for recruits across the South Region. They have compiled back-to-back 20-win seasons, while having Nick Dean become the first-ever MC player to be drafted to Major League Baseball. Dean was taken in the 32nd Round to the Los Angeles Dodgers, and became a Pioneer League All-Star in his first season.
