The Waterloo Bucks announced the signing of infielder Drew Walsh to their roster for the 2011 season. Walsh is a junior at Long Island University and a Staten Island native.

Walsh had a stellar 2010 season for the Blackbirds, including a nine game hitting streak from April 16-25. The 6’0″, 190-pounder played in 55 games, batting .313 with 62 hits, which was a team high and tied Walsh for the seventh highest in Long Island’s single season history. Walsh, as a left-handed batter, drove in 44 runs and was ranked ninth in the Northeast Conference in RBI.

“It’s an honor to be part of the Waterloo Bucks,” said Walsh. “I’ve heard nothing but great things about this club.”
