Trigg County High alum Arlon Butts will be on the Hoptown Hoppers’ 2021 roster when the season begins Friday.
Butts just finished his freshman season at Rend Lake College where he played both infield and pitcher. He was 1-1 with 12 strikeouts in 10 innings for RLC. Butts also had a homer in 15 at bats during the season.
He was an All-District player at Trigg County in 2019 where he hit .338 with nine doubles as a junior.
Butts and Hopkinsville High alum Jonathon Beymer are the only players from Kentucky on the Hoppers’ roster.
Hoptown opens the 2021 season Friday against the Ohio Valley League’s newest franchise, the Full County Rhythm, at 6:30. The Hoppers will play their 2021 home games at Christian County’s Colonel Field.
