Former Warren County High School Standouts off to Strong Starts in College Seasons

April 10, 2022

A number of former Warren County scholastic athletes are shining at the collegiate level this spring.

Among them are former Warren Dragon standouts Ben Berdine and Ellie Lobdell. Berdine recently picked up his first collegiate win for Mercyhurst University in relief against Lake Erie College, while Lobdell earned a save for the California University of Pennsylvania softball team.

Berdine is one of four former Dragons on the Mercyhurst Baseball team, joining Ryan Rafalski, Mitch Grosh and Aidan Morrison.

They are just two of the multiple success stories.
