When Missouri State hosts Oregon State in a high-profile matchup between two nationally ranked teams this weekend, controversial pitcher Luke Heimlich is expected to take the mound for the Beavers.
Heimlich, a season ago, left the team before the College World Series after a report by The Oregonian revealed the pitcher, as a 15-year-old, had pleaded guilty to molesting a 6-year-old family member.
Sports media across the country reported on the controversy surrounding Heimlich, who was considered one of the best college pitchers in the nation.
