Carter Beck’s Big MLB Draft Moment | Bismarck News

Carter Beck, the standout college baseball phenom from the University of Mary, was drafted 26th overall by the Atlanta Braves thanks to the Prospect Promotion Incentive — and he’s already rewriting the script for small-school athletes. After a stellar freshman year at Mary, Beck transferred to Indiana State, where he exploded onto the scene last season, leading the Missouri Valley Conference in runs scored and RBIs, winning the Joe Carter Player of the Year, and earning all-conference, all-defensive, and all-region honors. His draft success also makes him the third former Mary player to reach MLB — proof that grit, talent, and hustle can carry you anywhere, even from the smallest of programs.
