Former Caldwell County Tiger Bryce Thomas was in his sophomore season on the Rend Lake College baseball team when the COVID-19 crisis forced the sports world to shut down.
As a freshman last spring, Thomas was a member of the Rend Lake Warriors team which won the school’s first regional baseball championship in 11 years.
Looking ahead, Thomas is headed to Northern Kentucky University, where he is expected to finish up his collegiate baseball career.
Rend Lake is a two-year school located in Ina, Ill. It is a member of the Great Rivers Athletic Conference in the National Junior College Athletic Association.
Meanwhile, Northern Kentucky University is an NCAA Div. I institution. It is a member of the Horizon League.
Northern Kentucky is located in Highland Heights, near Covington. The Norse competed at the NCAA Div. II level until 2013.
Thomas, who played on Caldwell’s 2nd Region championship squads in 2016 and 2017, spoke with Your Sports Edge last week.
