Matthew Thompson

I am excited to announce my commitment to West Virginia University Institute of Technology to continue my academic and baseball career! First, I want to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ because without Him, none of this would be possible. I want to thank my parents for all of their support and my coaches at LC Bird and Virginia Breeze. Finally, I want to thank Coach Nesselrodt and the rest of the WVU Tech staff for this opportunity.

Some highlights from my 1st 2 weekends of the fall. Hit .600 with 5 singles, double, and 5SB. Scored 7 runs and had 3 RBI.

@GCC_bsb Looking forward to it

Almost that time! A few spots left—sign up now! Excited for August 30th!

Grateful to be recognized as one of the top runners at this event. More work to be done to get ready for this fall.
