Batesville’s Jaisle officially signs with Notre Dame

Will play baseball for the Irish

(BATESVILLE, Ind.) – Batesville standout athlete Will Jaisle made his college plans official on Thursday when he signed a letter of intent with the University of Notre Dame.

You may recognize Jaisle as the starting quarterback for the Bulldogs, but he is also a dominant force on the mound as a pitcher.

One scout said, "[He] has a clean arm with tons of quickness - producing a heavy fastball that has been up to 89 mph with late cut. For Jaisle, the separator is his ability to spin a breaking ball."

Jaisle says he can’t wait to get to South Bend and join the baseball team. 

“It’s a great feeling, I’ve been looking forward to this day ever since I verbally committed, and it means a lot to officially say, I’m Irish,” Jaisle told The 812. 

Jaisle credits Batesville Schools as well as the community for preparing him for this opportunity.

“The support from the people of Batesville has been amazing, and I wouldn’t of asked to go to any other school,” Jaisle said. “I am so grateful of everyone and how supportive they’ve been along my journey."

Jaisle and the Bulldogs will host Tri-West in a IHSAA regional football game on Friday night.
