JUNIOR INFIELDER/OUTFIELDER Anthony Scelfo

On being selected by the Twins in the supplemental first round
"I'm now a Tampa Rays fan. I'm just excited. I'm glad all that hard work paid off. We'll see what happens and go from there. Andy Cannizaro called me after it happened and we talked for a while. He gave me some advice on what to expect. I know what I'm capable of and I know what I can do. Working on it all spring definitely helped me get to this point. Working on it year round now will help me even more, so hopefully I can make this a career. It's very exciting."

HEAD COACH Rick Jones

On Scelfo being drafted in the eighth round by Tampa Bay
"Because of Bob Toledo and his staff, Anthony Scelfo was able to dedicate himself to baseball this spring and the results are obvious. He was able to concentrate on baseball, worked with the coaches, and learned to use the entire field as far as hitting is concerned. The ability was there. He just needed an opportunity to focus full time on baseball to turn that ability into production."

On six of Tulane's signees for the 2009 season being selected in the 2008 MLB Draft
"The number of draftees in our recruiting certainly shows strength of this class. I expect most of them to be in calls in the fall and elevate their draft status for three years from now."
