Jackson Lee is headed to John A. Logan Community College to continue his baseball career.

The recent Effingham High School graduate was a key cog in the Hearts baseball program throughout his time at EHS, both at the plate and on the mound. Lee played on an Effingham team that reached the supersectional for the first time in more than 70 years.

John A. Logan, based in Carterville, has a proud baseball tradition, twice having reached the national tournament.
