    MT. PLEASANT, S.C. (WCBD) – History was made in the Palmetto State Tuesday when the Toronto Blue Jays selected Summerville alum Carson Messina in the 12th round.

    Along with brother Cole going in the third round on Monday, the Messina brothers become the first pair of brothers to both be selected in the same draft in Lowcountry history.

    A hard throwing right-handed pitcher, Carson will now have a decision to make on whether to turn pro or attend South Carolina this fall.

    Summerville High School now has had three alums drafted in 2024 with the addition of outfielder PJ Morlando going in Sunday night’s first round.
