General of the Week: Danny Devereux

In only fifteen appearances, Danny Devereux, ‘19, has already done something that no Washington and Lee pitcher has ever done: record eight saves in a single season. The previous record of six was set in 1996 by Matt Reedy. As a first-year, Devereux is already only two saves shy of the career record. Between breaking various pitching records, Devereux took a minute to sit down with the Phi and talk about his role on the team, his goals for his career and his life off the mound.
