 Matt grew up in Wabasso, graduating from Wabasso High School in 2004.  He graduated from Minnesota State Mankato in 2008 with a degree in finance.

Matty joined the Sox in 2003 & has turned heads the entire time.  His great glove, his versatility, his clutch hitting & his talents as a pitcher are all great, but Matt really impresses people with his flip playing abilities.  He recalls the win in Milroy in 2005 that clinched a trip to the State Tournament as his best Long Sox moment.

Matt currently lives with his wife Andrea and daughter Ava in Wabasso and works for Monsanto as a seed tech.
