5/22/07 - Assistant Coach Anthony Rebyanski Traded to Windy City

IUP assistant baseball coach Anthony Rebyanski is now a member of the Windy City Thunderbolts in Professional Baseball's Frontier League.

The ThunderBolts completed a trade sending pitcher Toro Trevino and catcher Charlie Lisk to the Gateway Grizzlies for pitchers Cory Lapinski and Anthony Rebyanski.

"I think it was a very fair trade for both sides. It was a trade where both teams were able to strengthen certain areas of their clubs. I really feel like we acquired two guys who show the ability to strike hitters out," said ThunderBolts manager Andy Haines.

Rebyanski played most of 2006 for the Grizzlies. He was 2-4 with a 3.62 ERA in 19 games out of the bullpen. Frontier League hitters managed just a .179 average against Rebyanski. The right-hander fanned 36 batters and gave up only 17 hits in 27.1 innings pitched.

Rebyanski, an IUP pitcher from 2002- 2005 and current assistant coach, was drafted in the 1st round of the Frontier League Draft by Gateway in 2005.
