Brock Wells has played his last game for Bears before heading to the USA this week to advance his baseball aspirations.
Wells has secured a two-year scholarship at Central Arizona College.
CAC recently won the NJCAA world series of baseball in June with a team that included another Geelong local, Liam Spence.
Wells hopes to secure a further two-year scholarship and then go through to the minor league system.
The club will miss his abilities but wish him the very best in the US.
