Mike Ford went undrafted despite being a finalist for the John Olerud Award Finalist in 2013.
After being signed by the New York Yankees, check out this article in The Athletic ($) by Rustin Dodd about how Ford's thesis work prepared him for his journey to the Yankees this season.
Ford was one of the best players in Princeton history and had one of the great individual seasons in 2013 as he earned both the Ivy Player and Pitcher of the Year awards. He was the first Princeton player to ever win Player of the Year and made Ivy history as the only player to receive all three top awards in a career, as he was named Rookie of the Year in 2011. He would later pick up Louisville Slugger/CollegeBaseballInsider.com All-America Honorable Mention utility accolades.
