Congratulations to Chris Lewis and Charlie Schebler who both have recently committed to play baseball at Butler University this spring.
Lewis, a 2024 Batesville graduate, went to Danville Area Community College (IL) for his freshman year where he played in 47 games last spring, batting .314 with 32 runs scored and 29 runs batted in. He has recently announced he is leaving the junior college scene this spring and heading to Butler University to play Division I baseball.
Schebler, a 2023 Batesville graduate, went to Akron University and was named to the All-MAC Defensive Team last season. After his first 2 seasons, Schebler has played in 83 games with 68 hits and 46 runs in those seasons. Schebler will have a change of scenery next year after announcing he will be transferring to Butler University for the 2025-2026 school year.
Lewis and Schebler shared the field one season together at Batesville in 2023 along with fellow Division I teammates Jack Grunkemeyer (Northwestern) and Will Jaisle (Notre Dame). The duo looks to have success joining forces again and have the opportunity to wear a Bulldog uniform once again.
