RedWolves notebook

The RedWolves announce the signing of three players as conditional players for the start of the 2009 season. Local players Michael Calhoun 5'9" 200lb Jr. 1B/OF from Brevard College (The Byrnes School) and John Taylor 5'10" 165lb So. RHP/UTL from Florence Darlington Tech (Wilson High) along with USC's Curtis Murphy 6'3" 210lb RS Jr. 1B/3B will be pivotal additions to the RedWolves roster to help get the team off to a strong start. "Getting of to a good start in this league is very important". "Knowing each season that some of your roster will not be here at the beginning due to post season play, it is important to find players that have the talent and the willingness to come in play in their spots can help determine a teams direction for the whole season".

"For the fans we want to put a good product on the field every game and now more motivation is the fact that the league has gone to a playoff format and the first half winners of each division automatically get to host the first round playoff game". "We are fortunate that we have some local players that can come in and help us, Calhoun and Taylor are excited to be a part of the team and we are excited to have them". "Murphy kind of fell in our lap after our roster was already full, but he is willing to come in as a conditional to be a part of our team and obviously having another Carolina player on the roster doesn't hurt either from a fan standpoint".
