Vanderbilt Baseball: 2012 recruit Chris Harvey enrolls a year early

Baseball America broke the news (via twitter) that Anchor of Gold, @VUHawkTalk and VandySports.com had been sitting on (at the request of VU): 2012 Top 60 catcher and Perfect Game All-American Chris Harvey has graduated a year early from Germantown Academy in Norristown, Pennsylvania and enrolled at Vanderbilt.

Most importantly for Commodore baseball fans, there will be no 2012 MLB Draft signing day induced stress (with him, at least), as he will not be eligible to be drafted until 2014.

The six-foot four-inch, 220-pound right-hander will compete for playing time with RS Sr. Drew Fann and So. Spencer Navin.
