Kettering Royals

As the preseason continues, the Royals attended the 2010 Draft on Sunday March 14th.  With a down year in 2009, they had the 2nd overall pick in 2010 and looked to the draft to help bolster the lineup.  The Royals selected former BGSU Club baller and current UD Law student DJ Swearingen.  Swearingen adds another arm to the pitching staff, and will also help out at secondbase.  The Royals are excited to have DJ and look forward to him joining the team.

 Over the next week the Royals will continue their practices before taking the field against their Opening Day opponent for a preseason scrimmage.  It will be an interesting matchup as both coaches will be able to size up their opponents as they prepare for there meeting on April 11th.  The Scrimmage will be held at the Action Sports Complex (ASC).  ASC will be hosting a number of 2010 MVABL games this season and the Royals are excited to test out the facilities.  The scrimmage is scheduled to begin at 2 PM so please come out and get your first look at some of the 2010 Royals.
