This is huge for the program. We have $EC schools coming after Woodard and it is great to see him choose to stay here long term to keep building. Great to see a larger commitment on our end to the baseball program. Big things are in our future!!
Now we need to get more people and $$$ behind him and the program!
From your lips to Norm’s ears.

Erik Walker
Walker was a three-time all-conference and all-city/county in baseball from 2000-2002. He has a West Forsyth career record of 26-5, 190 innings pitched and 266 strikeouts. He was first team all-state in 2002 with an 0.87 ERA and Central Piedmont Conference Player of the Year. He was a two-time all-conference selection at UNC Charlotte, where he set a record with 25 saves and is second in total appearances. He was drafted by the Tampa Bay Rays in 2006 and had an 0.46 ERA, averaging two strikeouts per inning in rookie league. He died in a canoeing accident in 2006. The Rays present an award in his honor to a minor leaguer who exemplifies the highest character and skills, the UNCC baseball field’s hospitality suite is named in his honor and the main field at SW Little League is named after him. The Walker family funds an annual scholarship to a West baseball player.
