Gloucester Catholic shortstop Steve Bruno was drafted by the New York Yankees in the 26th round of Major League Baseball's First-Year Player Draft.

Bruno, who began his career at St. Joseph's Prep, was the 795th overall selection. This season he batted .515 with four home run and 33 RBIs.

Bruno has a scholarship to the University of Virginia. Players attending four-year colleges have until midnight on Aug. 15 to sign.

If a player attends a four-year college, he can't be drafted again until after his junior year.
