The Dirtbags are very proud to announce 2011 graduate Dirtbag Benton Moss has been named "Captain" of the Dirtbags 2011 class. Moss becomes the first pitcher to ever receive this honor.
Head Coach Andy Partin on Moss:
Benton Moss’ loyalty and commitment to the Dirtbag program has not gone unnoticed. It makes our entire program very proud to have him wear the “C” on his chest and help lead our club in 2010 and beyond.
Moss has become a front-line arm for us. He’s made himself into an extremely dominant pitcher, and it’s not by accident. This kid busts his rear-end on and off the field.
As a pitcher, he’s an athletic 5th infielder with a complete arsenal. He’s feisty too! He’s got a little mean-streak in him. He builds around an explosive 89-92 mph fastball and a breakingball that shackles hitters.
He is a high-energy dude on the field and he has become one of our most vocal leaders and he carries himself like a professional. Our guys really respect him and all the great things he brings to the Dirtbag program.
