Barbe High pitcher Adam Goree committed Monday to play at McNeese State.
Goree led Barbe to its third consecutive state championship this past season, going 8-1 with a 1.17 ERA in 66 innings pitched with 79 strikeouts. He threw six complete games and three shutouts, including a no-hitter against Sam Houston that sealed the District 3-5A championship for the Bucs. Goree also plays first base.
His twin brother Alex, a center fielder, committed to play at McNeese earlier this year.

STILL KICKING: Former Barbe forward Kelli Sonnier will play college soccer at LeTourneau University in Longview, Texas, the school announced Monday in a news release.
“Kelli is a very dynamic striker, who had a great high school career at Barbe High School,” said LeTourneau head coach John Antonisse. “We are very excited to have a forward with her ability join us this fall. She will be a great addition to our program and will add a big piece of the puzzle to our increasingly talented roster.”
Sonnier earned first-team all-state and all-district honors as a senior, scoring 32 goals while leading the Bucs to the state semifinals. She scored 87 goals in her four-year career.
LeTourneau is a Division III school that is a member of the American Southwest Conference.
