The junior outfielder has been a valuable contributor for the Gators baseball squad, batting 11-for-24 (.458) as a leadoff hitter as of April 7, and during a recent torrid week at the plate, went 8-for-11 with 2 doubles, 2 triples and 4 RBIs. Noted for his fine arm strength, speed and defense at multiple positions, Turner has thrown out several baserunners at the plate so far this season. Turner received All-Main Line baseball honors as a sophomore last spring. Off the field, he is a student government representative at Shipley, and was captain of the Gators’ junior varsity basketball team last winter.
