Though no member of the Virginia Cavaliers baseball team was drafted on the first day of the MLB Draft for the first time since 2013, the draft took its toll on the program on Tuesday with rounds 3-10.
Still relatively unknown to UVa fans since he had yet to step on the field for UVa, the first hit for Coach O’Connor came from the Los Angeles Angels when they selected Jack Kochanowicz in the 3rd round and No. 92 overall pick. A 6’6 220 RHP out of Pennsylvania, Kochanowicz was the highest rated recruit for the Cavaliers in the 2019 class.
