Andy Armstrong, entering his junior year at West Salem High School, has committed to play college baseball at Oregon State University.  Andy, a first team all-league shortstop as a sophomore in 2014, also plays football and basketball for the Titans. 

Here are a couple recent articles on Andy via The Statesman Journal:

The fourth ranked Titans baseball team may not have made it as far as they'd like on the playing field in 2014, but academically they were number one in the state.  At the 6A level in Oregon no baseball team performed better in the classroom than the Titans.  Overall, the team earned a 3.65 GPA for the school year.  When asked to comment on the impressive achievement no ballplayers were available (they were all studying).
