It did not take Elijah Underhill very long to select his new collegiate home. The Christian County senior announced Tuesday in a social media post that he would now be playing collegiate baseball at Eastern Kentucky University.

Underhill, who had originally committed to Western Kentucky University in September 2021, de-committed from the Toppers in late June.

Underhill had a big junior season to help the Colonels to a 29-8 record and an 8th-District title before they fell to St. Xavier in the opening round of the state tournament.

He led the Colonels with a .377 average, 59 runs, 43 hits, and nine home runs on the way to 1st Team All-State and 2nd Region Player of the Year honors. He also dazzled on the mound, making 11 starts and striking out 139 batters in 69 innings with a 6-2 record and a 2.54 ERA.

Underhill will graduate from Christian County in spring of 2023.
