Barrios Returns to Saints

There’s a familiar face back at Seward. After helping lead the Saints to a Jayhawk West and Region 6 championship last year, Jake Barrios has returned to Seward after he signed at LSU last summer. The Jayhawk West Freshman of the Year hit .359 with eight homers and 59 RBI’s for the Saints last spring. He’s returning to Seward after concerns about playing time at LSU. Barrios played shortstop at Seward but LSU had been trying him at first base. Barrios hit .337 with one homer and 11 RBI’s for the Bee Jays this summer. Barrios is a native of Weatherford, Oklahoma.
