Jaylon Moore of Red Bank High School will continue his baseball career at Hiwassee College in Madisonville, Tenn. Moore, the starting catcher on Head Coach Trey Hicks' team this past season, hit for a .245 average with the Lions. The 5'8", 180-pounder said he also credits Red Bank pitching coach James Dickson with much of his success behind the plate, giving him a greater understanding at handling hurlers in game situations.
The Tigers, coached by Shane Gardner, are members of the National Christian College Athletic Association.
