LCSC adds Lewiston High product Knigge

 4-25-07

Lewiston High School senior pitcher Tyler Knigge has signed a letter-of-intent to play for the Lewis-Clark State College baseball team, LCSC coach Ed Cheff has announced. 

Knigge is the son of former LCSC standout Kent Knigge, who played for the Warriors in the 1980s. 

The Knigges moved to Lewiston last year from Filer, where Tyler was a standout athlete at Filer High School. Tyler played for the Lewis-Clark Twins last summer and is a pitcher on the current Lewiston High team. Earlier this season, he threw a four-hitter in a 2-1 win over Borah of Boise. 

“We believe he has a great upside and as he physically develops, he will become a quality pitcher for us,” Cheff says. “He has a great mental make-up.” 

The LCSC roster currently has two Lewiston High products on its roster – junior first baseman Kyle Greene and freshman catcher Tyler Carson, who is redshirting this season.
