Coming off two very successful years on the diamond at SUNY Niagara, Medina High graduate Aidan Paul is now set to begin his first year playing Division 1 college baseball at High Point University in North Carolina.

Paul will be a junior pitcher on the High Point squad.

Last year Paul helped hurl SUNY Niagara to the Region III championship and a fourth place finish at the national tournament as the Thunderwolves finished with a school record total of 52 wins.

Paul went 7-1 on the mound with 62 strikeouts and a 1.21 earned run average.

He earned first team All Region 3 honors and was a second team All Western New York Conference selection.

During his scholastic days at Medina he was a two time first time Niagara-Orleans All League honoree.

High Point, which competes in the Big South Conference, is scheduled to open the season at home on February 13 against St. Joseph’s.

The High Point schedule is highlighted by a series of games at the University of Florida in early March.
