Ellenbest Named Prospect League All-Star

MSU Athletics

Morehead State junior pitcher Matt Ellenbest has been named to the east division roster for the Prospect League All-Star Game, which is scheduled for Tuesday (July 8) in Terre Haute, Ind.

Ellenbest, who plays for the Lorain County (Ohio) Ironmen, leads the summer circuit with seven saves. He tossed 10.2 innings, struck out eight and has a team-best 1.68 ERA.

A native of Medina, Ohio, Ellenbest transferred following his freshman season at Wabash Valley College in Illinois. He was 2-2 with a 5.02 ERA in 24 appearances for MSU Head Coach Mike McGuire in 2014. He collected two saves, and opponents hit just .267 off him in 37.2 innings.

Morehead State finished 29-28 and set a school record with 16 Ohio Valley Conference victories.
