Notes:

Garrett Boulware was drafted in the 42nd Round by San Deigo.  Boulware was ranked as the 5th best prospect in the state of South Carolina by John Manual of Baseball America.  Boulware is consider more of a polished defensive prospect at this time, but still has the making of a catcher who can also contribute with the bat.

Daniel Gossett was drafted in the 16th Round by the Boston Red Sox.  Gossett was ranked as the 2nd best prospect in state of South Carolina by John Manual of Baseball American.  Gossett was dominate for much of the season going 9-0 with a .44 ERA with Byrnes until getting roughed up in the 4A State Championship Game. 

Trevor Kieboom is the younger brother of current Tiger, Spencer Kieboom.  Trevor is already enrolled and on campus.  Kieboom can play infield as well as pitch, but right now the plan is to have Trevor work from the mound.

Daniel Norris was drafted in 2nd Round by the Toronto Blue Jays.  Norris was projected as a Top 20-25 pick in the draft, but slid into the second rounds due to concerns on his signability and bonus demands.  Norris was reported asking for close to $4 Million, so their is a decent chance that Norris could end up at Clemson come Fall. 

Jackson Whitley was drafted in the 13th Round by the Los Angeles Angels.  Whitley was considered a Top 10 prospect in the state of South Carolina by Baseball America.  UPDATE: Whitley signed with the Angles on June 13th, 2011.
