Gallia Academy senior Justin Bailey — seated front and center — signed a letter of intent on Wednesday, Nov. 14, to continue his baseball career at Tiffin University in Tiffin, Ohio. Bailey — a three-year starter for the Blue Devils and the 2011 SEOAL co-player of the year in baseball — signed with friends and family nearby in the GAHS media conference room, then discussed what he liked about becoming a Dragon. “It was a really comfortable place and it is somewhat close to home. It’s not huge, but it’s not home either,” Bailey said. “I really liked the campus, the coaches and the facilities, and I’m really excited about having the opportunity. Coach Corvin has been a big help over the years in this process, rather it be what we’ve done on the field or in guiding me through this. I knew I wanted to sign now so that I could just focus on playing baseball as a senior.” Bailey is currently undecided on a major, but is leaning toward either Sports Management or Education. Justin is seated with his parents, Robin and Phil Bailey of Bidwell, Ohio. Standing in back are GAHS baseball coach Rich Corvin and GAHS athletic director Brent Simms. (Bryan Walters/photo)
