SEASIDE, Calif. – Three members of the Cal State Monterey Bay baseball squad are heading to South Carolina this summer to compete in the new Myrtle Beach Collegiate Summer Baseball League.  Tommy George and Jake Paolinetti will don Snapper uniforms while Devin Finnn will play for the Sea Dragons.
 
“The MBCSBL is getting three very good players, who also happen to be very fine young men and student-athletes,” said head coach Walt White. “They will represent CSUMB baseball the right way in South Carolina and will continue to spread the word of what we are doing in this program."
 
The MBCSL consists of 10 teams of 215 players representing over 100 universities across the nation.
 
A product of San Jose City College, Paolinetti broke the single season school record for wins last season (7).  George is a two-year starter in outfield for the Otters and led the 2011 team with 16 stolen bases.  Finn will make his collegiate debut this spring fighting for a spot in the outfield.
 
"We were very impressed with the business plan that the MBCSBL presented to us,” White said. “We feel this will soon be one of the premier summer leagues in the country, and we are glad we can be part of its beginnings.  It's located in one of the most beautiful areas of the country and they have a very player friendly setup.  Our guys should have the time of their lives this summer."
 
The Otters open their 2012 campaign at home against the Westmont Warriors on Friday, Feb. 3.
