Following a visit to Knoxville on Monday, right-handed pitcher Thomas Crabtree wasted no time solidifying his official commitment to Tennessee, announcing via his X account on Wednesday "I am going to be a University of Tennessee Volunteer. My childhood dream of wearing the Power T is real".
The 6-foot-4, 195-pound Tennessee native is coming off an impressive freshman season for Pearl River Community College. Crabtree was named First Team All-MACCC after holding a record of 10-2 with an ERA of 2.96, while striking out 105 batters to become the first Pearl River Community College pitcher to surpass 100 strikeouts since 2008. Crabtree also exhibited a near-perfect game, throwing for a flawless eight-inning stretch last season.
Crabtree's commitment comes at a pivotal time for the Tennessee pitching staff as Head coach Tony Vitello faces the impending departures of several pitchers, including Drew Beam to the MLB draft, and the eligibility expiration of Zander Sechrist, Kirby Connell, and Chris Stamos.
