Lake Erie College Athletics Hall of Fame
During his time as an outfielder with the Storm baseball program, Luke Raley was known for not only his powerful bat but for his amazing glove as well.
He broke onto the scene in 2014 when he hit .353 and earned GLIAC Freshman of the Year and First Team honors. This was just the tip of the iceberg for Raley, however, and in 2016 he set two single-season school records when he hit 12 home runs and posted an astounding .424 batting average. As a result, he would be named All-American, All-Region, ABCA D2 Gold Glove Nominee, GLIAC First Team and the GLIAC Commissioner's Award Recipient.
After an impressive three-year career in which he hit .379, recorded 25 home runs and drove in 101 runs, he became the second Storm baseball player to be drafted into Major League Baseball when the Los Angeles Dodgers selected him in the seventh round.
At the time of his induction he held 14 school records and his number (#20) was officially retired by the Storm baseball program following his collegiate career.
