The Dawgs are excited to announce that Eric Machej (Illinois State University), Kadyn Williams (Emporia State University) and Jason Arriola (Colorado State University Pueblo) have re-signed for the 2025 season.
Machej, a Dawgs academy product, has been an affiliate the last two seasons for the Dawgs and has done nothing but produce. In 2024, Machej played in 7 games with 25 at-bats during the regular season batting .480 with 2 doubles, 2 triples and 8 RBI. Look for the Redbird freshman to make a significant impact in 2025.
Kadyn Williams makes his return to the Dawgs in 2025. The outfielder played solid defense in all 3 positions while contributing offensively to the tune of a .307 average with 5 doubles and 15 RBI in 26 games played during the 2024 regular season.
Jason Arriola was a defensive Swiss Army knife for the Dawgs in 2024 splitting time between catcher, third base and left field. The switch hitting utility player tallied 5 doubles, 1 triple and 16 RBI in 33 games played during the 2024 regular season.
Welcome back, Dawgs!
