Trio of MDCC Baseball standouts earn All-State honors

MOORHEAD - The Mississippi Delta Community College Trojans baseball program had a trio of student-athletes named to the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) All-State second team recently.

Parker Caston (Cleveland), Dawson Ivey (Clarkdale) and Parker Lane (Columbus) were the MDCC standouts chosen for the prestigious honor.

Caston, a sophomore right-handed pitcher who will continue his academic and athletic career at Delta State University, finished with a 3-1 record with a 4.11 ERA and a 28/17 strikeout/walk ratio in 32.1 innings out of the bullpen. He also earned a save, and later received the program's Best Pitcher Award.

Ivey, a sophomore infielder who will join Caston next season at DSU, hit .378 with 12 doubles, one triple, two home runs and a team-leading 44 RBI. He also had four stolen bases and a very impressive 31/20 base on balls/strikeout ratio. For his efforts, he was selected as the team's Most Valuable Player in 2018.

Lane, a freshman infielder/designated hitter, had a stellar rookie campaign, hitting .370 with a team-leading 16 doubles, two triples, three home runs and 26 RBI, to go along with two stolen bases. He was chosen as the Best Offensive Player for the 2018 campaign.
