Alabama Third Baseman Enters Transfer Portal
Alabama Baseball third baseman Colby Shelton has entered the transfer portal, according to BamaOnLine's Charlie Potter.
The move comes less than one week after Alabama's season ended in the Super Regionals, losing to Wake Forest 22-5 and two days after it was announced that former Maryland coach Rob Vaughn was hired as the next Alabama head coach.
The Fla., native played one season at the Capstone, recording recording a .301 batting average with 61 hits, 51 runs batted in, 49 runs, 33 drawn walks, 25 home runs, ten doubles, two sacrifice flies, and a triple.
He also was named a Collegiate Baseball Newspaper Freshman All-American and a National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Freshman All-American.
Shelton is one of two Bama baseball players to enter the portal on Wednesday, joining infielder Bryce Eblin.
