Urban Meyer’s son Nate signs letter of intent with Cincinnati Baseball
Wednesday marked a pretty special day for Urban Meyer and his family. The Ohio State football coach’s son Nate signed his letter of intent with Cincinnati’s baseball program.
Nate is an infielder who plays high school ball at Bishop Watterson High School in Columbus. The Bearcats welcomed Meyer with a post on Twitter:

Nate signing with Cincinnati means all three of the Meyers’ children are scholarship athletes, which is pretty special for the coach.

Nate’s sisters, Nicki and Gigi, were both college volleyball players.
Nate is in his senior year of high school. According to MaxPreps’ limited (and likely incomplete) stats, Meyer batted .303 in 11 games last year and .299 in 15 games as a sophomore.
Though he’s made his name as a college football coach, Urban Meyer played baseball in addition to football in college and actually spent two seasons in the Atlanta Braves’ system.
