Tupelo's Weller named to pair of All-State teams

May 17—It's been a good week for Tupelo standout Davin Weller. The THS senior learned he would represent the Tigers on two different All-State teams.

Weller was named to the Oklahoma Baseball Coaches Association Small East All-State team and is one of five local athletes to make the roster for the Oklahoma Native All-State Association baseball squad.

Weller was a force on the mound this spring for the Tigers and helped lead Tupelo to its fifth consecutive spring state tournament appearance. He finished the season with 82 strikeouts in 48.2 innings and had a 0.719 ERA. Weller also finished with a .548 on-base percentage.

"I'm very proud of Davin," said Tupelo head coach Clay Weller, Davin's father. "It's a tremendous accomplishment for him and our baseball program."

The OBCA All-State small-school game is June 2 at David Allen Memorial Ballpark in Enid.

The Tigers finished 21-7 and ranked No. 3 in Class B.
