FAYETTEVILLE N.C. – The Fayetteville SwampDogs are pleased to announce the addition of Dayton University's Jimmy Roesinger to the 2010 summer roster. 

During his incredible sophomore season in 2009, the Dayton University infielder hit .401 with three homers and 38 RBIs en route to being named first team all-Atlantic 10.  His .401 average was tied for third best in the A-10 and his .523 average in conference play was the best in the league.  Roesinger figures to be a fan favorite in Fayetteville because of his blue collar work ethic on the diamond. 

 “I’m a scrappy player,” the 5-9, 160-pound, redshirt junior said.  “I’m not necessarily a flashy player.  I just do whatever is needed to get the job done.”

Now in his junior season at Dayton, the Indianapolis, IN native, Roesinger is off to a fast start to the 2010 campaign.  In the team’s first week of the season, the Flyer’s third baseman was named the Atlantic 10 Player of the Week.  Through March 15th, Roesinger is hitting .328 in the Flyers first 14 games.  He also has a homer and nine RBI’s.    

 Like it has been for many of the SwampDogs players of the past, Fayetteville’s winning tradition is what brings Roesinger to the team. 

 “I chose Fayetteville because it was my best opportunity to play on a winning team in a very competitive league,” Roesinger said.

“Jimmy will be a valuable member of our club this summer,” said SwampDogs head coach Darrell Handelsman. “He has the skills to hit at the top of our lineup and be a great table setter. Defensively, he can play anywhere except behind the plate, which will provide us a lot of flexibility on a nightly basis”.

 The Fayetteville SwampDogs are entering their 10th season as a member of the Coastal Plain League, the nation's hottest summer collegiate baseball league.
