"It's an honor and glory that God has blessed me to be able to play baseball this long," said Wheeler. "I'm so pleased to be able to play two more years of ball and maybe more than that. I can't wait to get down (to Mississippi Valley) and show them my ability."

"ICC has been a great starting place for me. Coach Collier, Coach Alex Williamson and Coach Justin Bryant have all helped me grow and helped me get better as a baseball player. They taught me all the little things that you don't really learn in high school and I'm really appreciative of that."

The outfielder from Mooreville has five doubles, two home runs and 7 stolen bases.
