The Milwaukee Brewers signed Chad McClanahan '16, an 11th-round draft pick, to a $1.2 million deal that gives the club a solid infielder with great hitting potential. McClanahan, a top student-athlete, was selected to last season's All USA-Arizona and All-State teams.
Baseball head coach Tom Succow says, "Chad McClanahan is one of the most talented players whom I have ever coached. Chad's willingness to learn, his coachability, and his competitive nature will allow him to succeed at the professional level. Under a microscope all year, Chad excelled as one of the top players in the state of Arizona. The Milwaukee Brewers are fortunate to draft and sign this outstanding athlete."
