CINCINNATI - After another BIG EAST title and a trip to the NCAA Tournament regional finals, Rylan Bannon and Zac Lowther were both listed in the most recent Baseball America Top 500 MLB Draft Prospects list. Lowther checks in at No. 113 and Bannon is listed at No. 481, meaning both are likely to be taken in the upcoming MLB First Year Player Draft, scheduled for June 12-14 in Secaucus, N.J.

It's the first time in program history that Xavier baseball has had two prospects listed.
