Ontario Terriers RHP Liam Carey (Georgetown, Ont.) committed to Muskingum University in New Concord, Ohio this week.

The entire Terriers program congratulates the Carey family on this tremendous achievement. He has put in countless hours at The Baseball Zone over the past seven plus years. His positive attitude and work ethic are beyond reproach. He joined the Terriers at 15u and has played at every level of the program.

Over the past two summers, he has bagged two PBLO playoff championships with the 17u Teriers and is currently a roster player for the 18u Terriers. He was also honoured with the John Jepson Award last season for generosity of spirit, sportsmanship, dedication to improvement and academic achievement.

He also won the Team Player Award for his high school baseball team, in addition to being an honour roll student for four consecutive years. He will be studying Health and Fitness at Muskingum University.

The Muskingum University campus was founded in 1837, sits on 245 acres one hour east of Columbus Ohio. It is home to 22 men's and women's varsity sports. The Fighting Muskies compete in the NCAA Ohio Athletic Conference, however they will open their 2020 campaign on March 1 in Ft. Pierce, Fla. After nine days in the sunny south, the Muskies will head home for the balance of their schedule including 18 conference games.
