A Homegrown Talent Stays Close to Home
Mason Lunzman, a left‑handed pitcher from North Dakota, has carved out a distinctive path in the state's baseball landscape, moving from Jamestown High School to Dickinson State University and back to the summer league Badlands Big Sticks.
After two seasons at Bismarck State College, Lunzman weighed a move to Metropolitan State University of Denver but ultimately decided to remain in North Dakota, a choice that has paid dividends on the mound.
In his freshman year with the Blue Hawks, he posted a 6‑2 record with a 3.84 ERA, earning multiple conference accolades and catching the attention of scouts.
Lunzman's rise from the bullpen to a starting role underscores his self‑motivation and willingness to embrace new challenges, traits that have defined his development.
Now in his third summer with the Badlands Big Sticks, he continues to refine his craft while preparing to return to Dickinson State for his junior season, a testament to his commitment to growth within his home state.
