Lucas Dunn will head to North Carolina to join Team USA.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – University of Louisville baseball student-athlete Lucas Dunn is bound for North Carolina where he will join the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team.
Dunn will join Reid Detmers on the current roster and is the fifth Louisville player to compete with Team USA this summer, with Alex Binelas, Michael Kirian and Bobby Miller all taking part in training camp.
A versatile player, Dunn just finished his sophomore season with the Cardinals. Serving primarily as Louisville's leadoff hitter, Dunn posted a .309 average with 13 extra-base hits, 25 RBIs and 48 runs scored. He was also 15-of-17 in stolen bases.
Dunn opened the season as Louisville's second baseman before shifting into the outfield. The Panama City Beach, Florida, native made 33 starts in centerfield, 13 at second base, one at shortstop and one in right field.
The USA Collegiate National Team, managed by Louisville head coach Dan McDonnell, owns a 2-0 lead in its five-game series against Cuba. The USA tallied a 5-1 victory in Tuesday's opener and came from behind for a 4-2 win on Wednesday. The series continues with games Thursday and Saturday in Durham, North Carolina, and a Friday contest in Cary.
Following the series with Cuba, the USA CNT will head to Taiwan for five games against Chinese Taipei and wrap up the summer with five games at Japan.
