Dalton Harper Drafted by Braves | Buffalo News

Dalton Harper, a catcher from SUNY Niagara, just got drafted by the Atlanta Braves in the 16th round—472nd overall—making him the 11th player ever selected straight from the school since its baseball program began in 1967. This year, Harper crushed it with a .556 batting average, 17 homers, and 91 RBIs in 59 games, proving that big-league dreams can come from small-school programs.
