Oregon State pitcher Luke Heimlich, who as a teenager pleaded guilty to molesting a 6-year-old girl, was not taken in Major League Baseball's draft.
Heimlich was the top pitcher during the regular season for the No. 1-ranked Beavers, who have lost just four games and are headed to the College World Series starting this weekend in Omaha.
On Wednesday before practice, coach Pat Casey would not say whether Heimlich would pitch during the World Series.
"All I can say about Luke Heimlich is that I'm praying for him, his family, anybody that was involved in that matter, especially the little girl," he told reporters.
