Athan Kroll is DBU’s late-inning hammer with a closer’s edge
In the 2026 season, Athan Kroll has emerged as a trusted bullpen weapon for Dallas Baptist, converting at least 9 saves and repeatedly closing tight games with scoreless innings. The 6-foot-4 right-hander brings a heavy, power-frame look and the kind of late-inning poise coaches love: he’s been used to protect one-run leads and finish off quality opponents, which tells you DBU trusts his competitiveness and nerve. He’s a fit for teams wanting a calm, strike-throwing finisher with legitimate leverage experience.
