CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. - Southeast Missouri State baseball will begin fall practice on Tuesday at Capaha Field. The Redhawks welcome 11 newcomers as well as volunteer assistant coach J.C. Field. Among the returnees are All-Ohio Valley Conference performers Dustin Renfrow (West Plains, Mo./Jefferson CC), Nick Harris (Alabaster, Ala./Thompson), Jim Klocke (St. Louis, Mo./St. John Vianney) and Josh Syberg (St. Louis, Mo./St. John Vianney). Former Big XII transfers Matt Wagner (Wahoo, Neb./Nebraska) and Matt Wulfers (Cape Girardeau, Mo./Missouri) also return to the squad after starting last spring.

"We're eager to get a look at our new players and evaluate our returning players after successful seasons in collegiate summer leagues," head coach Mark Hogan said.

All fall practices will be held at Capaha Field and are open to the public.
