St. Edward pitching prospect Stetson Allie will most likely hear his name called in the first round of Monday’s Major League Baseball Amateur Draft. ESPN’s Keith Law and MLB Network’s Jonathan Mayo both see the 6’3 hurler being chosen in the middle of round one. Allie tossed a complete game against Warren Harding on May 20 at Cene Park in the Division I District Finals. Stetson struck out seventeen Raiders as the Eagles won, 9-4. Allie, also is a capable hitter, went 2-3 and drove in three runs for St. Ed’s. Allie has committed to play for Mike Fox at the University of North Carolina next spring. St. Edward (27-3) is scheduled to play Sunday, June 6 (3 PM) against Cincinnati Elder (28-4) for the Division I State Championship.
