SAUGET, Illinois – Former Georgia College & State University pitcher
Christian Castorri has agreed to terms with the Gateway Grizzlies of
the Frontier League.
Castorri, a right-hander from Thomasville, Ga., recently finished his
senior season at GCSU after helping the Bobcats to a 53-12
record and their first ever Peach Belt Conference Championship.
Castorri went 7-3 with a 2.97 earned run average in 18 appearances and 12 starts for the Bobcats in 2006. He struck out 47 batters in 69.2 innings, while allowing only 18 walks and holding opposing hitters to a .258 batting average.
“This is a great opportunity for Christian,” GCSU coach Chris Calciano
said. “The Frontier League is a terrific league which attracts scouts
from major league teams, so this is a good chance for him to continue his baseball career.”
The Frontier League is a very successful professional independent
baseball league with ten teams located in Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, Indiana and Pennsylvania.
