Yellowjacket Baseball Adds Another

BILLINGS, Mont. – Montana State Billings head baseball coach Rob Bishop announced the addition of Billings native Blake Loran for the 2010-11 season. 

“Blake is a great student and a solid baseball player,” Bishop said.  “I expect him to make an impact in the program immediately and be a guy that contributes in the long term as well.  We are excited to have another quality Billings player in the program."
