Beesball Draft Notes

More draft notes from RamblinWreck.com.......... It's official - Austin Jackson made the call to Coach Hewitt to tell him his hoops career is over. Coach Hewitt, as always, was focusing on the kid's future:

"People have the wrong idea about college coaches," Hewitt said. "We all the feel the same way. We all take the approach that it's about what's best for the young man's future. Most of us are financially secure and comfortable with where we are in our lives. So I told him, 'Whatever you want to do, I want to support you."

Catcher Andy Hawranick and outfielder Jeff Kindel were anticipating having to make that decision as well. But neither was drafted, leaving Hall to worry about the impact that could have on two key players.
