Jordan, a righty that will join South Carolina's team this fall, joined the Eau Claire Express recently and immediately had an impact this summer.

He's pitched in six games so far out of the bullpen and has a 0.60 ERA through 15 innings with a 0.73 WHIP and a .140 batting average against.

Jordan is one of six top 100 junior college prospects the Gamecocks have in their 2019 class and is coming off a really good year at Cowley College.
