Tribune Feature on Bryan Sandy

When it comes to impact players, Harvey grad Bryan Sandy has lived up to the term.

Sandy, who comes from a successful family tree that includes football players and coaches, is at the Badlands Bowl this week, the first of two All-Star games he'll play in. In the fall he will head to Bismarck to play ball for U-Mary, and should be a nice asset for their squad.

As a senior Sandy was selected to his second straight All-State first team, helping lead the Hornets to a state title. As Harvey's primary receiving threat he tallied 37 catches for 664 yards (18 YPC) and 11 touchdowns. He's a player.

Trib Story on Carr, Post Draft

The Trib's Mike Weber did a follow-up story with Kyle Carr, the Linton native taken in the 12th round of the MLB Draft.

The story talks about how at the end of the season Carr needed surgery on his knee and that may have hurt his draft status a bit, but he ended up going about where he thought he would go, and he's happy with the Twins' organization and that they are showing him continued support.

Good stuff. Click here to read it.

Trib's Carr Draft Preview

Former Linton standout and current Gopher standout Kyle Carr is on the cusp of being drafted again.

Carr was drafted in the 31st round a frew years ago by the Twins, but after serving as a bullpen arm in 2007 and a starting pitcher this season for the University of Minnesota, Carr has a pretty good shot at being drafted again.

When it comes to a pitcher and a person, Carr is as good as they've come. He was a senior the first year I covered sports and I talked with him a bit once he went to college. He's always been cool to talk to and I'm pulling for him to make it to the show.
