Over the past two weeks, Pike Lib left-handed pitcher Will Rice has received college scholarship offers from Wallace Community College-Dothan and Enterprise State Community College.
The offers were the first college offers for the 6-foot-3-inch, 195-pound incoming senior. Rice is coming off a junior campaign that saw him pitch just 17 and 1/3 innings after battling through a shoulder injury. In his time on the mound, Rice earned a 3-1 record with 19 strikeouts. Despite the injury, he came back to earn three wins as a starting pitcher in the playoffs.
As a sophomore, Rice helped Pike Lib win an AISA State Championship and struck out 33 batters with a 3.782 ERA in 24 innings pitched.
