Under the Bobcats' Christmas tree this year will be 16 players who have committed to the team for the coming season. Though the first pitch of the 2011 season is still six months away, the roster is two-thirds complete. There are still many holes to fill, but Manager Kyle Medley said more players will be signed in the coming weeks.
The players who have committed represent nine schools in five states—Illinois, Tennessee, Kansas, Mississippi and Alabama. Thus far, no players from last season's Bobcats squad have committed to return.
