Chris Flynn wasn't so sure he was done with baseball.
He went the college student-athlete route for four years while attending Roger Williams University, and the two-time all-conference selection in the Commonwealth Coast Conference readied for the next stage of his life. He had a diploma and a contract working as a project engineer for a commercial construction company in Providence, Rhode Island. He possessed extra eligibility - two years, thanks to COVID-19 - but he wasn't sure if he wanted to utilize it.
He wanted to at least explore a graduate year season as a Division III athlete, so he talked to his employer and opted to return to the Hawks for a fifth year.
