Jankowski drafted by Astros

Peters Township catcher Jordan Jankowski was drafted Friday in the 34th round of Major League Baseball's amateur draft by the Houston Astros.

Jankowski finished his career with the Indians as one of the top home run hitters in WPIAL history. Besides catcher, Jankowski was also one of PT's top pitchers.

Jankowski has a full baseball scholarship to Miami University of Ohio, so it is unclear if he will sign with the Asttros by the August 15 deadline or go to college. If Jankowski chooses to attend college, he cannot be drafted again until after his junior season.
