"I am very excited about these three young men," said Berry. "We believe we have found some quality student athletes in this early signing period.  Mike and Lucas are going to help us on the mound sooner rather than later.  They both are fierce competitors when they get on the mound.  Kolin is a big strong switch hitting first baseman who has power from both sides of the plate.  These guys are going to represent Northern State University very well both on the field and off."
