ENGLEWOOD — In what has been something of a star-crossed season for the Lemon Bay baseball program, Wednesday afternoon was, well, star-studded.
Five Lemon Bay baseball players signed their letters of intent to play the game at the next level. Bradyn Wise and Joel Vazquez will do so together at Glen Oaks Community College in Michigan. Austin Woodbury will be close to home, playing for New College of Florida. Bradley Henson is headed to Lander and Gabe Todaro will head up the coast to play at Pasco-Hernando State College.
