The top two-way HBCU baseball player in the country is apparently on the move.
Jordan Hamberg, a one-time MEAC Pitcher of the Year at Coppin State, announced he is entering the transfer portal.
“After extensive thought and contemplation, I’ve decided that I will be entering the transfer portal,” Hamberg wrote on Twitter. “I am a D1 All-American OF/LHP (UTL) at Coppin State University. I’d like to be given the opportunity to apply my talents elsewhere!”
