DULUTH, Minn. — The Duluth Huskies are adding a mix of experience and versatility to their roster for the 2026 season, welcoming three newcomers to the club. Cole McCombs and Manny Dorantes join as talented freshmen, while Devin Doyle brings senior leadership and collegiate experience to bolster the pitching staff this summer.
Devin Doyle | RHP | Senior | Grand View University
Devin Doyle, a right-handed pitcher from Grand View University, is slated to join the Huskies for the 2026 season. The senior brings extensive collegiate experience to the pitching staff and has put together a strong spring campaign heading into the summer.
Doyle has made four starts for Grand View this season, compiling a 3-0 record across 25.1 innings pitched. He has struck out 33 batters while posting a 3.91 ERA, and earned Conference Pitcher of the Week honors on March 16 following a standout performance.
