BELLEVUE, Neb. -- Bellevue University baseball coach Duane Monlux announced today the signing of Logan Grant (Calgary, Alta./Bismarck State) to a letter of intent to continue his academic and athletic careers at Bellevue beginning in the fall.

In two seasons playing for the Mystics, Grant has hit .436 with an outstanding 1.291 OPS. In totaling, 34 extra-base hits, Grant has smacked 11 home runs and driven in 90 runs. He has hit well above .400 in each of his two seasons and shown incredible plate discipline, drawing 25 walks and striking out just 18 times in over 200 plate appearances.

Coach Monlux on Grant:

"Logan is a guy that we are thrilled to have signed. He has the ability to play multiple positions on the field. He is a very good left-handed bat that can hit for average and power.
