Lindale pitcher Nash Walters considers his biggest strength as a pitcher to be his ability to overcome adversity and fight through tough situations.
Opposing hitters might wish they could have created more adversity for him.
Walters, who did not allow an earned run his entire junior season, signed to play baseball at Texas A&M on Wednesday at the Lindale High School cafeteria. Walters struck out 48 in 31 innings, adding six saves for the Eagles.
Former Midwest City standout Joel Davis' comeback story continued Wednesday when he signed to play baseball at Texas A&M.
Davis was a standout for the Bombers on the football and baseball fields before graduating in 2013, but he missed his senior football season due to tearing his ulnar collateral ligament and undergoing Tommy John surgery two days before practice began.
He was back on the baseball field that spring, serving as the designated hitter in the beginning of the season before returning to shortstop. He has since been at Seminole State.
As a senior for the Bombers, Davis hit .451 with five home runs and 36 RBIs, earning a spot on The Oklahoman's Big All-City first team.
