Since the initial, selection of Ty Madden in round one, the Texas Longhorns have been unexpectedly quiet in the 2021 MLB Draft.
On Monday, that finally changed, when outfielder Mike Antico was selected with the 241st overall pick by the St. Louis Cardinals in the eighth round of the draft.
A redshirt senior out of Colts Neck high school in Colts Neck, New Jersey, Antico was one of the Longhorns' most reliable players all season long, helping Texas reach the College World Series semi-finals against Mississippi State.
