Cincinnati, Ohio -- University of Cincinnati sophomore pitcher Bryan Wood (Fairfield, Ohio/Fairfield) was honored on Sunday as one of seven recipients of the Rosie Red Scholarship. Wood was honored on the field at Great American Ballpark, prior to the Reds game with the Montreal Expos.

?We are once again thrilled and appreciative to have the support of the Rosie Red group,? said Bearcat head coach Brian Cleary. ?It is really outstanding that a player like Bryan Wood has been honored for his contributions to Cincinnati baseball. We are thankful for the Rosie Reds support of Bearcat baseball.?
