While Neptune Beach no longer fields a summer league team, those rosters play a rich part in our history. Players from colleges and universities across the nation donned the Pearl Blue in California Collegiate League competition, and 31 were taken in MLB Drafts (see below). Notably, six have made it to "The Show": Kyle Barraclough (2011 Pearl); Ryan Cordell (2011 Pearl); Mickey McDonald (2014 Pearl); Lucas Erceg (2015 Pearl); Dane Myers (2015 Pearl); and Clayton Andrews (2016 Pearl).
