When asked about his decision, Clancy commented, “It has always been my dream to play college baseball.

Some of my family members have attended in the past, so it just seemed like the right choice.”

He is a hard-nosed player who has consistently improved here at BA, I look forward to him moving on to play college ball. He adds to our presence in the NE-10, and I am excited for him."
