⚾ CENTRAL ILLINOIS ELITE ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT ⚾

MYLES HAMMOND | ILLINOIS WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY

From wearing the orange and black of Central Illinois Elite to taking the mound for Illinois Wesleyan University, former CI Elite standout Myles Hammond completed his freshman season with the Titans in 2026.

Wearing #48, Hammond made 10 appearances out of the bullpen, finishing his freshman campaign with a 1–1 record, 13.2 innings pitched and 11 strikeouts.

🔥 SEASON HIGHLIGHTS

⚾ COLLEGIATE DEBUT — Myles made his first collegiate appearance on February 19 against Greenville, where he also recorded the first strikeout of his college career.

⚾ CAREER DAY VS. MILLIKIN — On March 28, Hammond came out of the bullpen against No. 22 Millikin and delivered one of the best performances of his freshman season. He worked a career-high 3.1 innings, allowed just one hit, and struck out a career-best four hitters.

⚾ Myles also delivered a scoreless relief appearance against Elmhurst on April 8, helping keep the Bluejays off the board during the middle innings of an eventual Illinois Wesleyan comeback victory.

Myles’ freshman season represents exactly what we love seeing from our CI Elite alumni — taking the next step, earning opportunities and continuing to compete at the college level.

The first college season is in the books, and there is plenty more ahead.

Congratulations on a great freshman season, Myles!

🟠⚫ ONCE ELITE. ALWAYS ELITE.
