The Arizona shortstop looks to become the school's first player taken in the first round since 2008
It's been seven years since the Arizona Wildcats had a player selected in the first round of the MLB Draft. But that seems likely to change with shortstop Kevin Newman sitting very high in many prospect rankings.
That 2008 draft had two Wildcats picked in the opening round. Ryan Perry went to the Detroit Tigers, while the Arizona Diamondbacks selected Daniel Schlereth.
There may be two Arizona players in the first round again this year, as Scott Kingery has a chance to go towards the end of the round, but let's take a look at Kevin Newman.
