Jace Kaminska might be from a small town in southeast Kansas but he hasn’t been shy of the spotlight this season for Wichita State.
Kaminska grew up in Caney, Kansas where the population is under 2,000 people. He attended Caney Valley High School where he took home the Kansas Gatorade Player of the Year in 2019 and 2020. For his career, Kaminska compiled a 0.59 ERA and allowed only 20 hits in 96 innings pitched.
Kaminska said that being from a small town has helped him in many different facets.
“Coming from a small town, I think it helped me a lot because you really have to remember where you’re from,” Kaminska said.
