Nick Drahozal, a Xavier grad who joined the Kirkwood baseball team last season as a walk-on, has signed to play NCAA Division I baseball at Nebraska-Omaha.

Drahozal, a left-hander, compiled a 6-3 record and 2.98 ERA for the Eagles last year as their No. 1 pitcher. He struck out 61 batters in 66.1 innings with only 16 walks.

Jack Fitzgerald from Kirkwood has signed to play at Houston Baptist. Fitzgerald, from Mason City, hit .288 with two home runs and 18 RBIs last season for the Eagles in 36 games.

Drahozal and Fitzgerald will be sophomores at Kirkwood this season. The Eagles finished with a 32-22 record last year.
