(Alexandria, MN) Cody Curry, a 2007 graduate of Jefferson High School has signed a temporary contract to play for the Beetles.

A temporary contract means a player must play a minimum of 10 days and can play as long as June 30.  The player may continue to play as long as they sign a full-term contract.

Curry, currently a Junior at Southwest Minnesota State (Marshall, MN) is hitting a whopping .473 in 31 games and has a slugging percentage of .691.  Prior to his arrival at Southwest State, Curry played two seasons at Fergus Falls C.C.  His last season in Fergus Curry hit .441 and was named to the all-division and all-state teams.

“We’re always happy to have a local kid playing for the Beetles, but that’s not the only reason we’re bringing Cody on board, he’s obviously having a great spring at Southwest Minnesota State,” said Beetles owner and GM Shawn Reilly.
