Coach Disch's comments: Travis is in his third year with our program. He started his career at Wayne State as a freshman and redshirted. Then he went to New Mexico Junior College for two years and returned to the Wildcats for his last two seasons. He is a sure gloved first baseman that earned All-NSIC Gold Glove honors last spring. Not only does he do well on the baseball field, he also has above a 3.0 grade point average in the classroom. He will hit in the middle of our order and continue to lead by example.
