The Dawgs continue to build momentum this offseason by adding three exciting talents to their lineup including fan favourite, Ashton Luera.

Ashton Luera — Right-Handed Pitcher (Oklahoma Wesleyan University)

On the mound, the Dawgs are thrilled to welcome back Ashton Luera, a right-handed pitcher out of Oklahoma Wesleyan University. Luera is coming off a standout showing as a late-inning reliever and closer, bringing strikeout ability and poise under pressure. His performance the last two seasons earned him recognition with the Dawgs and makes him a key arm in the pitching staff going forward.

Dante Turgeon — Outfielder (Western Illinois University)

The Dawgs have secured a dynamic outfield presence in Dante Turgeon, a senior from Western Illinois University. Standing 6’3″ with a proven track record as a hitter and versatile defender at Chandler-Gilbert CC & Stephen F Austin University, Turgeon brings both size and power to the Dawgs’ lineup, ready to make an impact this summer.

Lachlan Maude — Catcher (University of New Mexico)

Behind the plate, the Dawgs are welcoming Lachlan Maude, a catcher with size (6’4″) and a strong offensive profile. Maude, originally from Toronto, Ontario, has compiled solid hitting numbers and shown leadership skills throughout his college career, including time at New Mexico Junior College before moving on to the University of New Mexico. His combination of offensive ability and defensive presence will be a valuable addition to the Dawgs’ battery.

These signings strengthen the Dawgs’ depth across the field and fans can look forward to seeing these athletes contribute to the team’s success this season!
