One of the Big 12’s most powerful hitters is working to get back in the swing of things.
Tyler Neslony’s .498 career slugging percentage leads all league returners, a feat accomplished despite his health struggles the past two seasons.
In the final game of the 2014 College World Series, Neslony suffered an injury to his left shoulder and underwent surgery the following August.
It wasn’t until two weeks before the start of his junior campaign that he was finally cleared.
“I wasn’t really prepared or where I wanted to be before the season,” Neslony said.
