Tennessee baseball will have big shoes to fill for next season.
It’s going to be hard to replicate what the Vols did in 2022. However, adding UConn transfer Reggie Crawford is a good start.
Let’s do it! @vol_baseball 🍊
Thank you to everyone at UConn for an unbelievable past couple of years. I am extremely thankful for Coach Penders as well as the rest of the coaching staff, my teammates, friends, etc. who made it such a great experience. I will forever be grateful pic.twitter.com/NJCiqWgbW7

Crawford was incredible for the Huskies, batting .295 at 1st base and posting a 2.35 ERA in 7.2 innings pitched. He also hit 13 home runs and scored 62 RBI’s in 2021. He missed all of 2022 with Tommy John surgery.
Crawford is eligible for the MLB draft on July 17, so Vols fans will have to sweat the coming weeks out to hope he makes it to Knoxville. He is projected as an early round pick.
