LU Head Coach Will Davis on Douthit:
"Braxton is an extremely talented RHP who went 11-1 last year for NOC-Enid. He was named regional MVP and made the All-Tournament team at the World Series. He will pitch anywhere from 90-95 with a wipe out slider. His potential is through the roof and has a chance to follow in the footsteps of some of the great Lamar pitchers of the past."
