"Jarod is going to provide us with depth at the first base
position," Headrick said. "I expect him to be a leader on the
team throughout his playing career here at LCU."
When asked why he chose LCU, Haskell said: "It is close to home and I have heard only good things about the school, baseball program and youth ministry program. I'm looking forward to extending my playing career at the collegiate level." LCU's School of Undergraduate Studies is a member of the National Christian College Athletic Association, Division II. The Red Lions will begin their 2013 baseball season on March 5, when they take on St. Louis Christian College in Hazelwood, Mo. ___ Founded in Lincoln in 1944, Lincoln Christian University's three schools -- the School of Undergraduate Studies, the Hargrove School of Adult & Graduate Studies and the Seminary -- share a mission to nurture and equip Christians with a biblical worldview to serve and lead in the church and the world.
