Former St. John’s Prep Star Joins the Navigators
Former two-time USA Today All Massachusetts Selection—outfielder Keith Leavitt—has been added to the Navigators 2016 roster. A four-year letter winner at “The Prep,” Leavitt helped lead the Eagles to 3 league titles. As a senior, Leavitt was named Team Captain and hit .423. He hit 19 home runs during his high school career and was also a Salem News All Star as a senior.
The 6’1″ 180-pound Leavitt also excelled in the classroom as a three-year National Honor Society member. He was born in Salem, MA and now resides in Manchester, MA.
Those credentials led him to State College, PA where he will play for the Penn State Nittany Lions this spring. He got his first taste of college baseball playing in the prestigious Cuba Baseball Friendship Tournament this fall, going 2-for-6.
