HUNTSVILLE, Ala. -- After helping lead the Alabama-Huntsville baseball team back to the Gulf South Conference tournament for the first time in five years, UAH assistant coach Hunter Royer has been named Assistant Coach of the Year by the Alabama Baseball Coaches Association. Royer picked up the honor among all assistant coaches at four-year institutions in the state.
"I would like to thank the Alabama Baseball
Coaches Association for honoring me with this award," noted Royer "It is very humbling. It is
without a doubt a team award and would not have been possible without the hard
work and commitment from our players this past season. I would also like to
thank our coaching staff head coach Lowell Mooneyham assistants Eddie Dorning,
Adam Keenum and Tony Rogowski”.
Royer joined the UAH staff in the fall of 2006 after three seasons at West Alabama.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. -- On the heels of a solid first season with the Alabama-Huntsville baseball squad, junior centerfielder Javon Pickett (Leeds) has signed a free-agent contract with the Kansas City Royals and has been assigned to the Burlington Royals of the Rookie Appalachian League.
The speedster made his debut for the Royals on Independence Day going 0-for-2 in his debut.
"We certainly wish him the best at the next level," noted UAH skipper Lowell Mooneyham. "We're going to sorely miss everything he brought to this team but the Royals presented him with a golden opportunity."
Pickett led the Chargers in steals this season swiping 30 bags in 31 attempts from the leadoff slot. The junior hit .350 on the year with 50 runs scored and 28 RBI. Picket came to UAH from Bevill State Community College where he earned all-conference honors.
