George Fox University Sophomore Starred at Rex Putnam High School

Knights Sign Pitcher Sean Eberhardt to 10-Day Contract.

The Knights have signed George Fox University sophomore Sean Eberhardt (pictured) to a 10-day contract. He is a 6-foot-1, 220-pounder from Milwaukie who graduated from Rex Putnam High School, where he pitched for ex-Knight and Putnam skipper Jason Stanley.

Eberhardt was a Three Rivers League all-star as a junior, and was the Northwest Oregon Conference's Pitcher of the Year, and a first-team all-star, as a senior. He played for the North team in the 2011 Reser's All-Star Series.

He played sparingly at George Fox as a freshman. He hit .500 (1-2) with an RBI and was 0-1 with a 27.00 ERA in one-third of an inning in his lone pitching appearance.

He also played for the Toros in WCL Portland last summer and was 2-0 in six games, with a 6.48 ERA and 15 strikeouts in 25 innings.

Ten-game signees, such as 2012 WCL postseason all-star, WCL ERA champion and Knights' Pitcher of the Year Rob Dittrick of Pacific University, often earn a full-time roster spot.
