    Oklahoma City set an NAIA record with 70 victories and hadn't even begun play at the NAIA World Series. They're loaded with legitimate prospects, all of whom have impressive numbers of their own. RHP E.J. Shanks was an NAIA all-American in 2003 and is a good bet to repeat after going 15-0, 2.87 with 105 strikeouts in 94 innings. When he keeps his arm angle up and doesn't flatten out his pitches, he shows an 88-92 mph fastball and an effective slider.
