February 26, 1017 – Stuart, FL – John Carroll’s Varsity Baseball team lost a tight game to Martin County last night 5-3 in Stuart. The non-district game was a make-up contest from Wednesday’s rain out.
On the mound, Junior Brian Jacobus threw 77 pitches over four innings of which 51% landed in the strike zone and allowed only three hits on the day while fanning five Tiger batters. Jacobus 6’6” frame is sure to grab the attention of recruiters at the Division I level and professional scouts as he refines his craft. We are just beginning to see the talent in this up and coming talent.
