Ohio State adds infielder from Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College

The Ohio State baseball team added another player to its roster today. Marc Stephens announced on X (formerly Twitter) that he would be joining the Buckeyes.

Stephens hails from Orange Beach, Alabama, and spent the last two seasons at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. While at MGCCC Stephens hit .387 with six homers, 71 RBI, and 16 stolen bases in 94 career games with the Bulldogs. Stephens helped lead Mississippi Gulf Coast to a 26-22 record this past season.

In his second collegiate season, Stephens improved his average from .340 to .435, a massive jump from an already impressive freshman campaign. It’s doubtful he’ll be able to replicate that kind of increase going to the Big Ten, but it’s clear the talent is there. It seem’s the Buckeyes are getting a good one.
