Larkin signs with Cloud County Thunderbirds

Zachary Larkin has signed a National Letter of Intent to play baseball at Cloud County Community College in Concordia, Kansas. The Cloud County Thunderbirds are coached by Greg Brummett. A 1991 graduate of Wichita State University, Brummett was a two-time all-conference pitcher, Missouri Valley pitcher of the year, and a first-team All-American in 1989. During that season, Brummett and the Shockers won the College World Series Championship and he earned most valuable player of the series. Brummett was inducted into the Wichita State Hall of Fame in 1995, with a career record of 43-11 in 424 innings with 364 strikeouts and 21 complete games over 59 starts. Brummet also spent 8 years as a professional pitcher with the San Francisco Giants, the Minnesota Twins, and AAA with the Boston Red Sox. Zachary and his parents are very appreciative of all the time given by his many different coaches throughout the years as they have taught him not only about baseball but about life as well. He has had some awesome teammates through the years, many of them having been together from t-ball through high school. The memories are priceless!
