Official Okotoks Dawgs News Release

The Okotoks Dawgs have signed OF Barry Eiseman (Reinhardt University), OF Jake Skaggs (Pittsburgh State University) and RHP Brandon LeBlanc (Chandler-Gilbert CC, RHP) for the 2025 season.

Eiseman returns for his second year with the Dawgs. In 2024, he was named a WCBL All-Star. During the regular season, he hit .317 with four doubles, one triple and two home runs with 25 RBIs.

Skaggs is new to the Dawgs and looks to make an immediate impact. His hard-nosed, gritty style of play will surely be fun for Dawgs fans to watch this summer. Currently in his junior year, Skaggs is off to a great start for Pittsburgh State University, hitting .353 in six games with two doubles, a home run and eight RBIs.

Brandon LeBlanc (Victoria, B.C.) is a Dawgs Academy graduate and currently in his sophomore year with the Chandler-Gilbert Coyotes. In 2024, LeBlanc made eight appearances (one start), pitching 28 1/3 innings with a 4.45 ERA prior to his season being cut short due to injury. LeBlanc looks to have a breakout year for the Coyotes and carry it into this summer with the Dawgs.
