A pair of Grand Strand high school athletes signed national letters of intent on Wednesday to continue their playing careers at Coastal Carolina beginning next fall.
Conway High right-handed pitcher Will Smith signed with the CCU baseball program and Myrtle Beach High senior Holden Grigg signed with the men’s golf program on the first day of the early fall signing period.
Smith is the top-ranked right-handed pitcher in South Carolina according to both Perfectgame.org and Diamond Rankings. He features a fastball that has been clocked at 93 mph, a slider and changeup, and has been impressive both in high school and on summer traveling teams.
